"Ptable" Review


Ptable = http://ptable.com/
“Many other periodic tables use the word interactive to describe themselves while offering nothing more than links to pages of data about elements. Pages of data are fine, and Ptable "outsources" these write-ups to others like Wikipedia and WebElements through the dropdown in the first tab. Ptable shines when used as a true application, more interactive and dynamic than any standalone software.”     
My take: An interactive periodic table that allows students immediate access to Wikipedia to research each element with a simple click. Limited to the study of atoms this is a worthwhile site for the science classroom.
