The ubiquity of infographics in popular media has nearly reached a saturation point in terms of interest and novelty. Print and online outlets, such as GOOD, Visual.ly, Mashable, and The New York Times, have promulgated these graphics out to readers who are eager for crisp designs and concise messaging. It is surprising, therefore, that infographics still remain scarce in K-12 classrooms. Education has yet to catch up to the public fascination with visual displays of information. Perhaps this is because infographics do not fit neatly into district-defined, test-focused curricula. Infographics by their nature are interdisciplinary, combining layers of text, statistics, and creativity. Via Frédéric DEBAILLEUL

If you use Chrome you know that extensions are laid out neatly to the right of the address bar. One thing about having all of your extensions accessible via small icons that are grouped together in the same place is that it makes sense from both a user experience and organizational standpoints. However, you may be using bookmarklets on your Chrome toolbar or your bookmarks folder as well that you may have wished could be moved or grouped with the other Chrome extensions. This post will show you how to do exactly that. Via Frédéric DEBAILLEUL
