Thing #19: Web 2.0 Awards

I wish I had more time to explore all of these sites. I’ll come back for a deeper look later, but for now I found Lulu to probably be the most useful for my students. How fun would it be to publish some of your writings? As we all know, it’s hard to motivate struggling writers so I think they might respond to being able to publish their work, even if only for themselves, especially if they can do it on the computer. Google maps and live maps would be cool for world geography. I played around with some of the others just for fun. Hair Mixer was fun! Picnik and Splashup to store and edit photos. I liked Picnik almost better than Picasa. Last for music and videos was fun to browse around in too.
