Need of Reading Ideas?

I am in the process of collecting ideas for my final project. I am interested in finding a link between technology and how it effects oral reading fluency. Presently in my classroom I am using Tumble Books. While doing my literature reveiw I ran across an article about a  librain who used Tumblebooks for Intervention classes. She saw a vast improvement in the oral reading fluency skills with students who used the website TumbleBooks verses the students who did not. I found this study very interesting. If you use any really good reading websites, I would be interested in hearing about them. Also in my classroom, my students use Study Island. I am interested even in apps for the ipod touch (ipad) and app for the Kindle Fire. I look forward in hearing from you.
