Yeah, I think things like that would be good. If one aims at primary 
schools, you either need to target teacher level things so things like 
this where the teacher can click a book mark and have useful things like 
this is always welcomed by them.

I'm not too sure how one would go about getting more free software into 
primary schools though and whether they are good "effort for results", 
compared to other higher education organisations...
