Miriam-Webster's Words of the Year

UBC's LEAP Website -- powered by Movable Type

Language, Culture & Modern Media -- collaborative rich media in the classroom, movies, audio, etc...

Write My College Paper -- this is a wish dream of many students so they can attend to other school activities

Bloglines -- for more info on using this RSS reader, check out this excellent tutorial.

Using aggregation and re-publishing of feeds for multi-user blogs (see also reviews of multi-user weblog systems by Robin Good, D'Arcy Norman and James Farmer.):

ETEC521 - Student example, aggregated feeds on a page, using aggRSSive.

Extending the functionality of weblogs using other tools and systems...

del.icio.us and other social bookmarking tools... example from D'Arcy Norman.

For a nice workout of del.icio.us (and an example of effective screencasting), Jon Udell's overview is highly recommended.

More and more educators are using podcasts -- via Rob Wall's weblog the EdTech Posse, Gardner Campbell's Donne A Day and are very much against custom college paper.

Flickr -- everyone's favorite social software application. Tags -- (see opened2005), groups, search (ie weblog), "blog this" button, size choice and code...


James Farmer -- How not to use blogs in education, How to use blogs in education, and Edublogs.org

Will Richardson -- Weblogg-ed

Stephen Downes, EDUCAUSE Review -- Educational Blogging, a must-read article from the hardest working man in educational webloggia
