Today, June 12th, our tip of the day is our built-in "Share" feature - allowing you to easily email your friends about pages and resources on Teachers.Net, and bookmark them online. If you are a part of a social network like Digg or Facebook, you can share any page on Teachers.Net easily with all your friends on the network!

Teachers.Net is one of the most active Internet websites in education, and that notoriety comes exclusively through word of mouth.  Teachers know they are the force behind Teachers.Net, and they can help others at the same time they help themselves, by helping to spread the word about Teachers.Net.

To help make it easy to share, we've installed a handy pop-up share "widget" that includes all the major share networks.  Typically displayed directly below the Teachers.Net logo, look for the word "Share" and pass your mouse over it. You'll see a small control pop-up, with a selection of options for sharing that webpage.

The following social networking and bookmarking sites can now be utilized directly through the "Share" feature on Teachers.Net:

Favorites  Google Bookmarks  Delicious  Digg  MySpace  Facebook  Furl  Yahoo MyWeb  StumbleUpon  Reddit  Newsvine  Live

Technorati  Twitter  Yahoo Bookmarks  myAOL  Ask  Fark  Slashdot  Propeller (Netscape)  Mixx  Multiply  Simpy  Blogmarks

Diigo  Faves (Bluedot)  Spurl  Link-a-Gogo  Mister Wong  FeedMeLinks  Backflip  Magnolia  Seganlo  Netvouz  Tailrank  Blinklist

In addition to these social networking and bookmarking sites, you can also email the link to that webpage, along with a brief note, directly through the Share pop-up control.  To email the link, pass your mouse over the "Share" link, and click on the word "Email."

Sharing links through social networks and storing your profiles online for easy access from any computer, are extremely popular trends these days.  But more importantly, they also help communities like Internet teachers quickly spread word of important and helpful content.  You can help teachers across your town, and around the world, by sharing the helpful content you find on Teachers.Net.

If you have any questions about the "Share" feature on Teachers.Net, or the technology in general, visit the Teachers.Net Tech Center and ask questions.  Remember, Teachers.Net is YOUR community, by learning its features and potential, by fully participating, and by spreading the word, you can help make it the best tool online for teachers.
