One of a couple really great online visual theasurus, similar to mapmyword and visualcomplexity.

How can you use this in your math classroom?  It looks like an incredibly powerful application.   I'm a big fan of having students explaining charts---this has a pretty good instant charting tool.

3
Create your timeline online, or look at the timelines already created, or import a timeline and share it.  Another online application that is replacing traditional computer applications.  Yup---the web is becoming a 'gi-normouse' application!
4
If you love Publisher---you are going to LOVE LetterPop!!  Here's a great way to publish fantastic looking newsletters!
5
Yep--it makes me happy inside!  I don't have to scramble to seek out another file converter!  It's right here!  And it works GREAT!!
6

You can upload your PPT's here, or create your presentation online.  Then share them.  Good stuff.

7

Publish and sell your own book.  1 book or a zillion books.  Yearbooks, kids books, manuals, photo albums----wow!!

And do you see the web2.0 award----that's a pretty good sign that this is a site worth taking a closer look at and using!

This is a great little online application for taking photos and short video and music and mixing up a quick video.  It's from the Muvee company which I love!!
9
Oh my goodness!  Here is Visio in Web 2.0 fashion!  Diagram until your heart's content.  And then share it all online with other folks.
10
Do you want to find out something from your students---or from a group?  Here's a quick way to take a poll.
11
Create a visual list of your favorite books and then share it with others.  Great for a book club or for inspiring others to read.
12

This one is a bit tough to follow ---but if you read and follow the directions closely, you can download and use the music free in your classroom and on non-profit podcasts.

Choose a genre and then an album and song.

Choose "license" and choose "school". 

READ the next screen that pops up and click the download link near the bottom of the screen.  You'll be taken to another screen from which you may download the song.

Oh my goodness---here's basically a guided tour around some fantastic Web 2.0 sites where you get to control where you go.  FANTASTIC!
16
Seems like a good place to which to refer if you need to get started with Web2.  Good site to have bookmarked.

I have used Goldwave for several years and this looks like the OpenSource version.  It's free, it seems to be the "standard"---guess I'll give it a try and see how it compares.
