All sorts of free stuff here! Free podcats, foreign language lessons, etc. I haven't sifted through everything, but I found it through a tweet by @todbaker - there might be some good lesson ideas or resources in here.

"Over the course of this event we will be looking at a small range of web based tools that will enable you to create motivating online language learning activities for your students. These can be used either in class or set as homework. You will have the chance to understand how these tools work, find out how to use them with students and be able to try your hand at creating and sharing activities with other teachers. By the end of the event you should have a small 'toolkit' of resources and ideas that will enable you to enhance your lessons though the effective and pedagogically sound use of technology."
