I had this great idea… I had been thinking that I should start sending Pad some informative URLs about homeschooling. I had decided a few years ago that it was how I wanted to educate my children. I am fortunate that Pad is willing to try this–but obviously I have been reading up on it for some time and have begun to plan in certain ways. He doesn’t have the same background or information.

So, I thought that I could go back over my bookmark list, and annotate the visits (in particular to sites I still find informative/interesting) like Cupidsbow did recently with her slash wanderings. It would also mean that I would revisit those sites I bookmarked and check that 1) they are still active, and 2) that they are still of interest. I have been investigating for some time, and my ideas have been gradually becoming somewhat more refined. By listing them here, I can (hopefully) more easily find specific sites, and Pad can start to read up a bit on the topic.

I headed on to my education links (which are mostly homeschooling of one stripe or another, rather than related to my secondary teaching) only to discover that of the first ten links, two were broken, and seven of the remainder are things which are no longer of interest. It’s probably no bad thing as it means a significant winnowing of my bookmarks, which should make it easier to find the things that are _really_ worth while.

Actually, I’m thinking I won’t annotate any in this post. I’ll do some sorting of bookmarks, then post again on a particular topic including links. That way the titles will reflect the content somewhat, making them even _easier_ to follow…

That’s the theory, at any rate.
