Find the Right Seat

Never sit in a bad airline seat again.  Seat Guru shows seat map for major airlines, both domestic and international, and each specific plane.  The map is color coded to show good seats, seats to be aware/cautious of, and poor seats.  Hold your cursor over the seat to get detailed information about that specific seat including legroom, proximity to the lavatory; recline of the seat, ability to view movies, armrest, and even tray tables.  The site also gives amenities on the plane, comparison charts, and travel resources.  Don’t book your flight without checking this website first! www.seatguru.com

Make a Mark

If you’re interested in teaching a child about needs around the world while giving them the opportunity to make a difference, check out Markmakers. The tagline of the website is “The place for young people making a difference.”  Using gift cards purchased for them by adults, kids can shop for a variety of items to meet different needs around the world.  They can buy blankets, provide for eye care, adopt an acre of rainforest, or choose from 40 other options.  They make their contribution all in one place or spread it out amongst multiple areas.  This website provides a unique way to teach children of all ages that they can make a mark on the world.  www.markmakers.org

Ah, the Memories…

Make your own professional, bound book of your photos.  SharedBook offers the ability to create a photo book for a variety of occasions from the birth of a new baby, birthdays, travel, and events to name a few.  The book you create will contain themed images (for example the Eiffel Tower if you chose travel to France), your own photos, memories, and comments.  Go to the site to view sample books and options.  A great gift idea!  Prices start at $29.95. http://www.sharedbook.com/home/our_books.html

On the Go

If you’re not listening to audio books while you commute, what are you waiting for?   If you commute for one hour a day (total), you are spending 260 hours a year in your car commuting to work – that’s equal to 32.5 days! Why waste it?

Adult and children’s audiobooks are available for free download to your iPod at LibriVox.  A wide range of titles and subjects are available and the catalog is growing daily.  If you don’t own an iPod, you can download the books to iTunes on your PC (available for free) and then burn the audiobooks to a disc.   www.librivox.org
