More Things

The movement in web 2.0 is from the desktop to the web and from isolated creation to shared creation. This transition has birthed a plethora of web-based applications that allow users to create, share, and archive their works.

A few of such apps are:
* Google Apps - an suite of tools that can be used for personal or public word processing and spreadsheets.
* SlideShare - allows users to present/share a presentation via the internet.
* Gliffy - creating graphics online has never been so easy.
* twitter - micro blogging at it's finest.
* flickrvision - a mashup of google maps and flickr
* twittervision - a mashup of twitter and google maps
* digg - a search engine that ranks items based on user feedback

There are many more and listio has a good list of applications and services that are Web 2.0.

Take Action: Check out one or more of these and post to your blog a review of how the tools was to use or a way that you could see students, faculty or staff using this service.
