My Semicolon Confession
I have a confession to make. I'm 37 years old and I still don't quite grasp; when I'm supposed to; use a semicolon. Thankfully the folks at theoatmeal.com have a little cartoon to help; us all out.

Wordle for Comprehension & More
Use Wordle to create visual representations of any text. Taking a look at a Wordle before or after reading will increase comprehension.
I used Wordle to create my header for this blog.
It's so easy. Just take a piece of text, paste it into the text box, and click the Go button. You can change everything form the layout to the colors to the font, and you can even rerun the process with a click to get a format more to your liking.
The possibilities are endless for Wordles. Use for shirts, recognition, memorization help, encouragement, etc. Interested in some more ideas? Here's a presentation at Slideshare with all kinds of ideas.
