Bill Simmons has a radio podcast called The BS Report. He talks sports, mostly basketball. He's very east coast biased, but can be interesting sometimes.

NPR Podcasts are many and they have many different topics and shows.

MPR has many different podcasts.

Native America Calling is a show about Native issues and discussion from Native people.

CBS Sports Podacasts are mostly about fantasy sports.

Free Native American Books Online

Those that know me know I've taught Native American Studies for 8 years at Rainy River Community College and for the last couple of years, at the elementary school.

Lately, I've been wondering how many Native books were online.  So I started doing a search and came across some books of interest.  I didn't read all of these so please keep that in mind.

I'll list them here.

Indian Heroes and Great Chieftains
by Ohiyesa (Charles Eastman)

Old Indian Days
by Ohiyesa (Charles Eastman)

Old Indian Legends
by Zitkala-Sa (Gertrude Simmons Bonnin)

Firewater and Forked Tongues
by Flying Hawk and M.I. Mcreight

Indian Life and Indian History
by Kah-ge-ga-gah-bowh (George Copway)

The Life, History, and Travels of Kah-ge-ga-gah-bowh
by Kah-ge-ga-gah-bowh (George Copway)

The Traditional History and Characteristic Sketches of the Ojibway Nation
by Kah-ge-ga-gah-bowh (George Copway)

Autobiography of Black Hawk
by Black Hawk

If you are interested in Native culture, these are all free online books written by Native authors about their own people.

Changes Changes

Ok ok, posting everyday didn't work out to great. I'm way too busy with 5 kids and teaching.

LOL

:)

So I am making some changes to this blog.

I am still going to be posting good sites to go to on the internet, but I won't be doing it everyday and hopefully the posts will be better because of it. Also, the blog will NOT end after 1 year.

I'll keep it going....

Project Exploring the Internet: Day 127

Storyjumper.com is a site kids can go write their own story and save it.

I'm impressed with this site. It's a great idea to get kids writing and to let them share it.
