Looking for a Kindergarten Partner Class

I have worked as a technology integrator teacher for 14 years in a suburban NY school, but in September 2010 I will begin a new assignment teaching kindergarten. I am interested in partnering with another kindergarten class in the US to learn about different characteristics of their area (weather, landforms, animals, etc.), share favorite books, discuss "All About Me" projects with student buddies, or any other activity that would benefit our children. I am very open to suggestions and ideas!
