This is a link to my Google Reader. I have subscribed to the topics that I find interesting.

This is one of the posts that is on my Reader Page from ESPN
"Behind the Box Score, where the Clippers and Grizzlies nearly salvaged a terrible night of hoops (Ball Don't Lie)
from Yahoo! Sports - NBA - Indiana Pacers News
Memphis Grizzlies 105, Los Angeles Clippers 98 (series tied, 1-1) After a miserable night of basketball that saw the Pacers and Spurs win by a combined 54 points, a reasonably-competitive Clippers/Grizzlies contest was a needed tonic, but hardly much to behold. It was fun to watch at times as Tony Allen and Zach Randolph worked their way back to respective health, and Chris Paul featured his typically-pugnacious ways, but the back and forth never truly delivered. You think Memphis cares? They hung in this one, quite well, forcing 20 Clippers turnovers and essentially beating Los Angeles to every crease, or every either-way call. Paul was fantastic for most of the contest, totaling 29 points on 17 shots (our man hit 4-6 threes) with five steals. He also turned the ball over five times, to just six turnovers, and it was O.J. Mayo that absolutely hounded CP3 into oblivion. Relatively speaking, of course. Chris Paul, for the most part, was still Chris Paul."

This is my Diigo Library list http://www.diigo.com/user/jzap71023?type=all
The way that I could use Diigo as a student in my University of Indianapolis coursework is when I have something that I have to read for a class and need to remember the important parts that I read, I can highlight those parts directly on the page, and save it. Then, seeing as I can also have Diigo on my phone, if I forget what it was, I can look it up on my phone to help me remember.
As a teacher, this would be useful in helping remember the important parts of an online book, which would be cheaper than having to get a huge book to carry around. This would make my classroom more technologically friendly and easier to use in the classroom.
This is a Google presentation that I created. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ZAuLbYhou8jeFN7K4kZR9SNGvA8QNjoigcaqxslP4Xk/edit
During the creation of this presentation, I noticed how similar it was to making a presentation using Microsoft PowerPoint. The thing about this that is better than PowerPoint is that it is free, as well as that it was very easy to use.
Two ways that this could be used in the education field is by making a presentation to present new information to a classroom, or by using it to assign a classroom to a presentation using this rather than PowerPoint.
