[MACEP] Portaportal

[mhochberg at comcast.net]

Hi, Tim!

I highly recommend Portaportal. Its interface is very clean and easy to use, especially for elementary school children.  We have a Portaportal for our school too: http://www.guest.portaportal.com/mlbv 

You can eliminate the ads too: $15 per year for 5 portals. I even created one just for our school staff with all the links the teachers use regularly.
