Blog Revolution: Expanding classroom horizons with Web logs. - Will Richardson, techLearning
Think blogs are a passing fad? Then consider this: A new blog is created every second. There are more than 900,000 blog posts a day. Some two million blogs are updated every week. At this point, I think it's safe to say that blogs are here to stay. As any journalist, politician, or business executive will tell you, a world inhabited by content-producing ordinary people—also known as bloggers—means big changes. That's soon to be true for educators, as well.

These kinds of resources definitely going to help. When we can provide the students some more meaningful ways of learning then why not go for those? I believe students will learn quickly by adopting these methods.

As you said there are many such resources available on World Wide Web, we just need to utilize those. I can recall once such incident where one student did not understand the basic subtraction rules of mathematics but when we showed him the some example made with visual effects then he quickly grabbed it. Anyways just an example how useful these things are for human beings..!!
