Glogster limiting Student Accounts

After
careful consideration, review of our recent survey data, and research,
we have decided to limit all new Basic Free accounts to 100 students
for all new registrations after February 28, 2010. The new registration
limits will not impact existing accounts created prior to the deadline.
If you know someone who might be interested in Glogster EDU, please
tell them to register soon, before the student account number goes
lower. Get your FREE 200 student accounts NOW!
