TECH TIP:  Time Magazines 100 Most Influential Photos

In this week's print issue of Time Magazine, they published the 100 Most Influential Images of All Time.  To go along with the print issue, they have a great website as well.  When you click on the image, you can read the background of the image and the photographers take on the image.  There are also 20 short documentary videos about some of the images.  These videos would be great to show in a class and the images could be used in history classes or as writing prompts.  Really fun to look through.
