Thinglink Image Tool Test

Let's see how the image linking tool, Thinglink, works... I'll add an image,



And then we'll see if I can make a section of the image a link. 

EDIT: I was able to make the GDocs logo a link to our LPSk12 page. Try it out now!

EDIT 2: I can also make it so that anyone can edit the link. Interesting! 

Let's try it. I'll add an image, and set it up for anyone to edit the link info. Here you go. 




EDIT: I've added a link on the earbuds. Since I chose a Wikipedia link, it looks really nice and special. You should be able to add your own link info to this image, so I'll be curious to see what you add! You do not need to use a Wikipedia link - in fact, try lots of others, just to see what they look like!

Carrot Sticks

Ladies and Gentlemen,

You can use this link to play Carrot Sticks and improve your math facts. After you click on the link, here's what you do:

1. Click "Play Now" up at the very top of the page
2. Spend a second or two customizing your avatar. Click "Done."
3. Set up your account - I'd use my Google account username and password to keep things simple. If you don't know your Google account info, use your first initial/last name as the username and password.
3. Have fun! Spend more time on the math than on your avatar.
