There is still a need for a simple, ad-hoc online chat room, and that is where PALMS Backchannel Chat (also called by the much cooler name YoTeach!) comes in. It has a ton of admin features to make it easier for teachers to create and manage the participants in a room.

Source: Wikitrivia Wikitrivia is a fun history timeline game. It starts with one card and shows you another card. You drag the card and place it where you think it goes in the time line. The time span can go back to 5000 B.C, so while it starts out pretty easy, it gets hard fast.
