What an interesting idea. Write the word "Most" on the board and ask for definitions. Then change it to:

most

100

Business teachers will know that I'm ALWAYS pointing them to the Long Tail blog and Chris Anderson's theory. http://fora.tv/2006/05/12/Chris_Anderson_with_Will_Hearst

Business teachers - WATCH that video. Read the top blog post. Do it NOW!
