3 Timeline / Story Mapping Sites

Here are 3 very cool sites which will greatly help lectures which require timelines or story mapping.

Timetoast (interactive) see example here

MyHistro, uses google maps. 

Menograph - The best of the 3.  Check out a demo here, and imagine the possibilities in Music Appreciation or Music History classes where dates are used frequently.  Uses google earth and lets you narrate as well.

Quizlet has an iPhone App!

Quizlet iPhone app is finally here!  No more need to use 3rd party apps to import Quizlet flashcards.  Hopefully there will be an iPad version soon....?

The app is simple, and doesn't have many new features that other similar apps don't already have, but it is nice to be able to log directly into your own Quizlet account to access all the flashcards w/out having to import.  There is a version of scatter, which does not work with images, only text.  The best study method is still the simplest - flash cards you can flip over using the touch screen swipe action.
