As you read this week’s email (that I wrote two weeks ago), we are currently in Israel. I assume (and hope) the world is still turning on its axis yet I’m sure it is also still in turmoil. We spent 3 days in Iceland to view the wonders of nature and photos of proof will be included in next week’s email. Until then, here are four interesting and interactive websites I’ve been saving for this writing hiatus.
10 Commandments
This first article is increasingly relevant as social media continues to invade (and sometimes eclipse) our lives. These 10 Commandments of Social Media hit a home run as each one speaks to the importance of integrity with our internet interactions. As the original 10 Commandments guide our lives I hope to these 10 bring light to our Social Media interplay.
This next site is an amazing indicator of our local dialect. It was originally posted last year on the NYTimes website and got some many hits I think the site crashed. It was extremely accurate when I took the test:
This last interactive website can keep you busy for hours especially if you love the Great Lakes of Michigan. You will find crazy amazing facts about these tremendous bodies of water.
Did you know an acronym for the Great Lakes is HOMES?
Congrats!
Mazel Tov Jeff Kaye and Danyelle Neuman on your wedding this weekend.
