Pixlr - Has an excellent set of tools that rival many software image editors. It has a full set of selection, drawing, retouching, cropping, resizing, and warping tools. You can add text, do all kinds of basic and advanced lighting and color adjustments, apply numerous filters, and supports layers with blending. It left me wishing that it was adownloadable application so I could use it anytime anywhere.

Bing Translator (previously Live Search Translator and Windows Live Translator) is a service provided by Microsoft as part of its Bing services to translate texts or entire web pages into different languages. All translation pairs are powered by Microsoft Translator technology, developed by Microsoft Research, as its backend translation software. Two transliteration pairs (between Chinese Traditional and Chinese Simplified) are provided by Microsoft's Windows International team. Computer-related texts are translated by Microsoft's own syntax-based statistical machine translation technology.






In addition to standard text and web page translation, Bing Translator includes several additional features:
When translating an entire web page, or when the user selects "Translate this page" in Bing search results, the Bilingual Viewer will be shown, which allows users to browse the original web page text and translation in parallel, supported by synchronized highlights, scrolling, and navigation




InstaCalc makes your life easy. It's a refreshingly different calculator that is simple, fast and surprisingly fun.

It's called InstaCalc for a reason: answers appear as you type. Your time is important, the computer's time is not. Spend less time waiting, more time doing.
Normal calculators and spreadsheets make you type and press Enter. Change the numbers, press Enter. Change the numbers again, press Enter.


Why this extra step? Imagine having to press "Enter" every time you typed a key in Word. Decades of spreadsheets and desk calculators have conditioned us to tolerate this pause between entering numbers and getting an answer. Break free.

See what you're working on.
See your work as you go, just like working on paper. You can see how you got an answer and change the numbers in real-time. You don't have to switch between viewing a cell's results and editing the details.
Regular calculators erase your equation to show you the results. You have to keep track of previous results yourself - will you write them down each time? And if you want to change an answer, you need to retype the entire calculation.
Sure, spreadsheets can have multiple equations, but they only show you one cell at a time. For the other cells you see a number like 81.879 and have to guess or remember how it came to be.

MSN (originally The Microsoft Network) is a collection of Internet sites and services provided by Microsoft. The Microsoft Network debuted as an online service and Internet service provider on August 24, 1995, to coincide with the release of the Windows 95 operating system.
The range of services offered by MSN has changed since its initial release in 1995. MSN was once a simple online service for Windows 95, an early experiment at interactive multimedia content on the Internet, and one of the most popular dial-up Internet service providers.
Microsoft used the MSN brand name to promote numerous popular web-based services in the late 1990s, most notably Hotmail and Messenger, before reorganizing many of them in 2005 under another brand name, Windows Live. MSN's Internet portal, MSN.com, is currently the 11th most visited domain name on the Internet.



Getting Things Done (GTD) is a method for organizing tasks so that you can focus your entire energy and creativity on completing those tasks in a stress free manner. This method was developed by David Allen in his book,Getting Things Done. The main principle of GTD is that recording your tasks in a reliable way - using a system that you trust - will free your mind from trying to remember and prioritize stuff. This recaptured mental energy can be put towards being more productive and efficient.

Engrade is a free web-based online management for classroom, including the gradebook, assignment calendar, and attendance book. It helps the teachers to manage the database of students, ranging from grades to record of attendance to the assignment calender. Teachers are able to sign up for this service. Students can also sign up for this service, only if they get the access code from their teachers who are participating to use this service. It also allows the teachers to have secure communication with students and parents. Students also can use this to have access to their grades in real-time from anywhere at any time.

The service, brought by Engrade, is truly free and will remain free. We are able to offer Engrade free of charge because we have been fortunate in past business, allowing us to volunteer our talents and to pay for expenses out of our own pockets. In the future, we may add optional premium services (for example, a service to send student transcripts to colleges) to help pay for costs, but we will always keep the main features free


This tool is free of charge, which will be a great supplement to the classroom management for teachers. Teachers would have a peaceful mind, knowing that they have the database of attendance book, gradebook, and assignment calender online. Students also are able to access their grades through Engrade, so they would know their grades on specific assignments, quizzes, or projects immediately after the teacher input their grades online. Also, they are able to look up for upcoming homework on assignment calender, develop their own public websites where students and parents can view on who they are, and send the messages to the teacher to ask questions outside of the classroom.
