Todd's Tuesday Technology Tips #30: How Old Are You?

Hello Colleagues,

Happy Tuesday!

I can imagine some really cool uses of the website called, "How Old Am I?"
This site will tell you your age or whoever you are interested in seeing their age.  However, it's not just in years, it will also do it in days, weeks, minutes and even seconds.  The site also can count down until your next birthday and more!

1.  Go to Age Calculator

2.  Use the menus to enter your birth date (you can even put the time in if you know it.)

3.  Click the "Find Your Age" button.

  

4.  That's it!

How might you use this tool with students?  
If you have an idea, please leave it in the comment section so others can learn more too!

Thanks,
Todd

Personally, I can never remember all of these.  However, if you look through the list of shortcuts, there might be one or two of them that click for you.  My suggestion:  print this out and keep it near your computer that you do most of your e-mail correspondence.
