Technology is not my strong suit, so having someone else do all the legwork to find what’s out there, categorize them, and give a brief summary is a win-win for me.

If I would have taken this course when it was more recent, I would have rated it higher, but since I was aware of and have used a large number of these tools before, I didn’t give it the highest rating. I did learn about a few new (to me) gems, so I’m pleased.
