Content Themes / Keywords
In the setup, allow some 'key words' to be entered. These keywords can then be used to pull new information from various web sources - e.g.
I.e. adding in dynamic/new content to keep interest.
This could be above, below, instead or aswell as static content.
---
For school, option to have keywords – weekly topics. Read in keywords from file, with dates (i.e. csv?) as option.
Read in topics for month. Make topic one of the top buttons…

Further discussion with Simon suggests that teachers might want pupils
to search the internet to see what they can find OR be directed to very
specific locations. Perhaps use a txt file with google searches included by
lines like 'google topicX' and directed to sites by supplying the web address
(cf the txt file for photos on the web - by the way does this existing feature
work for videos and music?? I have nvere tried.)
- Videos from youtube
- News from BBC
- Pictures from flikr

On web (information) area (but also applies to other areas):
displays search results from keywords OR sites set by teacher. i.e:
for N buttons,
if (#sites exsit=>N) then display these,
elseif (#sites exist <N), display sites and fill rest of buttons with keyword search results
