One snippet from the St John pilot, written by Bill Stelzer:<br><br>---<br><br>One thing I also quickly discovered was where fourth graders go when they get internet access. YouTube. Specifically, Soulja Boy as interpreted by Alvin and the Chipmunks. Sadly they learned that the XO doesn't play flash videos, so after much experimentation, much of the class migrated to the school computer where they staged an impromptu hip hop concert.<br><br>One exception though was Tracy, who was just staring at the Google home page on her XO. As I walked over to her, she said to me, "I want to see it."<br><br>"What do you mean?" I asked.<br><br>"The whole world, I want to see it."<br><br>I told her she was already looking at it. That all she had to do was type it in. She didn't really believe me, so I asked her what she wanted to know about. She said New Jersey, so I said okay just type it in. Thought it was a bit strange as she entered it, but I didn't say anything. When the results for New Jersey came up, I showed her how to work Google images, to see pictures of New Jersey.
