Drawing Tools. For drawing tools, you can pretty much use anything. I really enjoy using Artrage. It's only $25 and there's even a very capable free version. You can even use good ol' MS Paint or the free Paint.net.

Another excellent post by Clif Mims. Nice use of free, online video commenting. Very good discussion thread by teachers reflecting on the application of web-based word processing tools for teaching and learning and collaborating.
As a teacher, using an RSS reader can help you stay informed and up to date on new information related to your content area and practice. People often ask me how I find so much information about new technology resources, the answer is simple, I scan roughly 600 updates in my RSS reader every day. Obviously you don't have to subscribe to as many websites as I do to stay informed, but my RSS addiction does demonstrate how much time a person can save and how much information a person can find by using an RSS reader. If I didn't use an RSS reader there is no way that I could find so much information in a couple of hours each day. (As a side note, I'm going camping for six days without Internet access when I get back, I'll have thousands of items to scan through).
If you maintain a blog or website for your classroom, having your students use RSS readers is a good way to keep them informed of new information you've posted. For teachers that address current events in their curriculum, having students use RSS readers is a good way for them to track developments in news stories.
