Daylight Saving Time...

Ok, I don't know about you, but for me, these time changes have some downsides....especially when we jump ahead! I spent my day in three meetings (and I have one more to go later tonight) and I've gotta tell ya that all anyone could think about was taking a nap! So much for daylight savings time and being productive!

Just in case your curiosity got the better of you and you want the skinny on this particular annoying (to some of us) ritual of modern times go here: Daylight Saving Time.

(By the way [BTW]...this website has a nifty little feature where you can choose between a page view or a node view....think Tag Cloud. Can you say "Holy information visualization, Batman!"???)

An Interactive, Online Museum of Science, Humanities, & Culture...

WebExhibits is just that and more. Their hope is that the exhibits’ information, virtual experiments, and hands-on activities prompt us to think, to formulate questions, and to explore topics from a variety of angles.

Current topics include: Calendars Through the Ages; Daylight Savings Time (which made an appearance previously on this blog ); Color Vision & Art; Poetry Through the Ages; Van Gogh's Letters; Butter; Causes of Color; Bellini's Feast of the Gods; and Pigments through the Ages.

Previous topics can be found on the "Older Exhibits" page.

Be sure to check out the "About" page where you can learn how to create your own exhibit, take advantage of teacher resources, sign up for the newsletter, give feedback and more!

What a cool concept! Go forth and partake!
