The title says it all: The Docs/PDF/ powerpoint view look interesting so does Tabcloud (often chrome doesn't save my tabs) 

This looks fun! Some of the widgets that use to exist in wave are here. Could be an easy way to get students to collaborate

This is a fantastic web 2.0 tool. Upload images and annotate. You can other embed media inside the annotations. Annotations pop up as you click or hover over the objects you add. You can embed the annotated image into webpage or blog. This could be a useful tool for teachers and students. Lots of scope for creativity with layers etc. You can share to a group and set editing permissions for public or restricted people/groups for collaboration purposes. 

 Great resource if people are implementing ipads in their school. Has resources for teachers and students. As well as for special needs and higher education.

Royalty Free audio sound effects and loops. Need to acknowledged source. Great resource if students are creating movies

Especially when the Google Reader is bursting at the seams. Like the integration with my twitter feed too. 

This is worrying news for schools  who have invested heavily in globalstudent. Global student  provides an important opportunity for authentic learning in developing 21Century Skills. 

Very useful wiki for people looking at introducing gaming into their classroom or school. Loads of examples of games that could be integrated into the curriculum. I am about to loose some time checking some of these out.

This looks very interesting. The potential is huge for students to develop apps for the Android platform. How can apple beat this one if they have locked down their apps store? The great thing about App inventor is that it looks like it has been modelled on Scratch 'Blocks' of building scripts. My Grade 5 and 6's (some whiz kids lower) would love to get their hands on this. The potential for them to develop their own apps for perhaps an Android tablet or smart phone is enormous. Rich and authentic possibilities for learning. Have DEECD made a wrong choice in going with the ipad? 

Great list of mostly free apps for the 'igadgets' in the classroom. Having a quick look at this list there seems to be some apps being developed for creativity, check out 'Doodle Kids' developed by a nine year old. 

Fun, great to view, some people have time on their hands!  These experiments were created by designers and programmers from around the world using the latest open standards, including HTML5, Canvas, SVG, and more. Their work is making the web faster, more fun, and more open - the same spirit in which we built Google Chrome.

Great post for the new doc's user and some useful tips and tools for the experienced user. Bookmark on your tool bar if you are a regular google docs user. 

A great extension for Google Chrome. That allows you to take screen shots and then annotate them. This would be very useful for teachers and or students who create 'how to' instructional projects. 

Use Google wave similar to coverit live. Interesting way to use Google wave as a live blogging tool for your blog followers to see. 

Tom Barret's very useful "Interesting Ways" all in the one spot. Looking for a way to integrate some ICT into your classroom? You should find something here. If you have an idea that you would like to add contact Tom he will be more than happy to give you privileges to do so. Another great resource to pack into the 'old kit bag' 

Awesome finally we have real time editing with collaborators and an in built chat function. This is going to make our team planning days easier. Looking forward to seeing if it has a Land scape function.  

Awesome blog post on Movie making and literacy skills. Some great pedagogy happening with this group of students. I really like Kynan's philosophy of letting the students learn rather than intervening with teacher direction. Final cut express is a rather complicated piece of software but it looks like these kids have eaten it for breakfast

I've set up this Twitter Directory For Victorian DEECD Teachers. Hoping to network with more teachers and expand the twittersphere for others!
