Create a Graph

My daughter had to create a graph on bacteria for her science class. She googled "Create a Graph" and came up with a really quick, easy way to create her graph that looked really good. I don't know if I could create a graph that looked this good on Excel. Rachel is only a 7th grader, but it was so easy to use. I thought I would pass it along for those who hadn't thought about googling create a graph. It is http://nces.ed.gov/nceskids/createAgraph/default.aspx

Book Club

We are starting a book club in our neighborhood. I was considering some kind of social networking to be able to discuss books or to update people. I don't want to use FACE book because of all the emails I already get for being hit by a snowball. What suggestions do you have? I have gotten comfortable with the PB Wiki and the blogs. I know my knowledge is limited and was thinking there might be something out there that would be more useful... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...
