Favorite 2.0 tools?

[Polly Farrington]

Forgive me if this has been discussed before (I'm sure it has!)

I'm teaching a 2 day 'tech camp' for school librarians this weekend and I'd like to share with them what people find are their most used/most helpful 2.0 tools.

Also hoping some of them will join this group!

Thanks a bunch.

Hi Polly,

I came across an interesting 2.0 tool lately that I have added to the library website of my school. Pageflakes.

I saw my first example of Pageflakes at the Dublin City Libraries and Archives: http://www.pageflakes.com/dublincitypubliclibraries/

I then created something for the students of my school: http://www.pageflakes.com/langleysecondary/18824625

Hi Polly,

Your tech camp was probably quite awhile ago, but maybe you're still looking for neat new tools? I did a Web 2.0 presentation for teachers this summer and built a wiki to go with it. I keep adding to the wiki as I find new tools. The link to the wiki is: http://techitupwebtools.pbwiki.com For the record, my favorite web 2.0 app is Voicethread http://www.voicethread.com It is absoulutely amazing and the kids love it!

Tracy, thanks so much for sharing your wiki! Terrific list of resources. Very helpful. I'm still doing 'tech camp' sessions and will definitely share your wiki with them.

Thanks, Polly! I just started my Podcasting class this past week, so I am hoping to have some podcasts uploaded around February 1 on the blog! I will also be putting them on iTunes....if I can't get them to work on the blog, I will put a link to the iTunes shortcut to the podcasts via the blog! :-)
