The site is not loading. Any idea as to when it may become available?
The site does not work (404 error)
Yeah, same thing for me. I'm kinda bummed. That sounds like a really neat tool. I'll have to try it tomorrow. Hopefully it is just that your post caused them to have more network traffic then they anticipated.
It's available.
Here's another w/several flash games- Jeopardy, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Random Name Generator, Speed Match- http://www.superteachertools.com/
