Tips and tricks for gadgets and software for your digital life given by two Texas chicks obsessed with anything digital. The podcast is geared specifically to educators interested in integrating technology into their curriculum. Companion blog, forums and resources at: http://techchicktips.net/
We’re just two Texas tech chicks (Helen = techchick, Anna = digimom) that are into anything digital and want to share tips and tricks we’ve found along the way.

Dan was the keynote speaker at the Beyond4Walls conference in Farmers Branch, TX, on Friday, November 3rd, 2006. Dan and Anna have been working together on the “Where in the World” podcast since last Spring, so it was great to finally get to sit down and talk. We also mention Wes Fryer’s website (http://speedofcreativity.org ) and use music from Derek K. Miller (“Had a Plan, Had to Change It”) from the Podsafe Music Network (http://music.podshow.com/).
