    I downloaded Metamorphosis, by Franz Kafka.  It’s in wma format, so I’m trying to figure out how to convert it to pull it into iTunes, which doesn’t appear to support that file type.

    Well, a moment on the Internet and I have the solution.  Switch file conversion software.  A free version is available.  I downloaded, installed and converted the wma to mp3.  I then added to my iTunes Library.

Although not the first to do so, I did think of it before seeing it elsewhere!

    As an alternative to bookmark storing websites like ikeepbookmarks.com (which I use and would recommend) or portaportal, tag sites with content-area tags or topic tags or however you fel best applies. Students can then go to your del.icio.us page with the added tag, del.icio.us/yourname/yourtag.

    Have fun!

    If your book has an ISBN (they all do), you can auto-generate a citation with Ottobib.

    Whether you need MLA, APA, AMA, or Chicago, Ottobib’s got you covered. All you need to do is enter in the ISBN and hit “enter” – and there’s the citation you need. Quite the timesaver; I wish that I had something like this when I was in school. — Wendy Boswell

    Thanks to Lifehacker for this post!
