When first viewing the four search tools that were listed I was not familiar with any except the Google Blog Search. The other three (Topix.net, Syndic8.com, and Technorati) were all a little difficult to navigate through, but out of the three Topix.net seemed to be the most user-friendly. Topix.net was also my favorite because it took me to sites which contained accurate information about my specific area. This information is good to share within a classroom because interest will be created instantly, being that instruction is on the area in which the students live.
The Technorati and Syndic8.com search tools seemed hard to use and were not providing me with good RSS feeds. These two sites will not be ones in which I will use in the future. However, the Topix.net tool will be one that will hopefully provide me with educational and interactive activities in which my future students will be able to benefit from.
