Thing 19

     I signed up for TeacherPop about a week ago, and I am still waiting for membership approval in order to complete the first part of "Thing 19."  I decided to move on and complete the 2nd part of the assignment.  I will edit and add to the assignment later.  
     I am a member of Good Reads and Diigo.  I am really interested in Good Reads because as a future teacher, this social networking gives me insight on the content of books that would interest students in their reading.   It would also be beneficial in helping me build a classroom library with several different genres.  Through this social networking that includes book reviews and ratings, I would have the knowledge of knowing which books to choose for independent readings and suggested readings.  Good Reads allows users to create their own groups and teachers are using this site to their advantage.  As of now, I am not a member of Flixster or Filmcrave, but I can see where these social sites would be useful for teachers as they choose movies for their classrooms.
