The sec­ond ses­sion of Kids Tech Club started this week and, wow! I love this part of my job. Six­teen kids are reg­is­tered for this ses­sion so I was both exhausted and exhil­a­rated after our first hour.

I think crowd­sourc­ing is amaz­ing. There­fore today’s inspi­ra­tional link is to

QR Voice via The Dar­ing Librar­ian (You just type in a short mes­sage (100 Char­ac­ters) is a fun QR option. Type in a mes­sage of up to 100 char­ac­ters and a robotic voice a la Siri reads your mes­sage. This is going to be a huge hit! Gwyneth also rec­om­mends the QR code reader FREE QR Code APP i-nigma (for both iPhone and Android).

Fol­low­ing up on another con­ver­sa­tion on Twit­ter, I’m going to try to include more exam­ples of tools in use dur­ing each weekly roundup. This week there are two: Zoom.it and PhotoPeach.

Zoom.it allows you to place a full size image on a web­site and then zoom in to see the details. Here’s an exam­ple using my moun­tain of felt candy. Hoover over the image, then click the + sign to zoom in. Drag your mouse over the image to move around. Dis­cov­ered via @rmbyrne

Pho­to­Peach is an easy way to cre­ate photo slideshows. You can add music which I chose not to for this demo. You also have the choice of slide or spi­ral view. I like the spi­ral view. As with the Flan­nel Fri­day Ani­moto I made in Octo­ber, flan­nel is the theme here. Dis­cov­ered via @mrsdkrebs
