There are many great bookmarking and categorizing tools available for use, and many of them are highly effective...unless you use ALL of them and then forget which site you used to bookmark something. I AM INFAMOUS FOR DOING THIS. To combat my poor bookmarking ability, I decided to create this blog to serve as my virtual junk-drawer; a place for art, education, and "other" found treasures.

Mixbook
PLEASE NOTE: This post contains images of an art-portfolio Mixbook. Some pages contain images of nude figure drawings from a university art class.
I included Mixbook in a previous post, but here is an example of a Mixbook that I created. I ordered a hard copy of this version, and I have to admit...I LOVE IT!!!
This can be a great way for students to showcase their work, and the applications for educational use are pretty much unlimited. You can collaborate with others on the same book, order hard copies, or view & embed digital versions. Special discounts are available for educators. Tip: Coupon codes are almost always available at RetailMeNot (another website I can not live without)
