Method to the madness...

Just wanted you all to know that all of this extra stuff (blog, forms, shared spreadsheets, group chat while edit, photo capture/edit/embedding, etc.) is a form of training/practice for my classes; education is on the verge of exploding into these collaborative projects, and for me, it's exhilarating trying these new things and thinking about how I can use them to make learning more fun and effective for my students. I'm especially encouraged by how willing you all are to try these things and by how fast you're picking them up! Thanks for all of your help (whether you're aware of it or not!).
