Classroom 2.0 is a social network for educators who are interested in the use of Web 2.0 or collaborative technologies in the classroom. I will use it for them to review each feature of this website and to consider or brainstorm what things they would like to incorporate into their own. It is a great source of ideas and a great place to collaborate with teachers of all levels.

Bubbl.us is a simple and free web application that lets you brainstorm online. Users can create colorful mind maps, share with others, export the mind map to a blog or website, email or print and save it as a jpg. It has a very simple interface and a good help tool in the bar on the right. If Spinscape seems daunting and you don't need all the additional collaborative functions, this is a better choice for the novice.
Google Wave - 0 views

Google Wave is an interactive communication and collaboration tool that makes real-time interactions happen. Communication and collaboration can be done using richly formatted text, photos, videos, and maps. You can keep a single copy of ideas, suggested itinerary, menu and RSVPs, rather than using many different tools. Widgets can also be used for weather, maps and more to add to the event. Users can participate or edit the wave at anytime and rewind to see who said what and when. Teachers will find this very useful for editing essays and students will find it very useful for group work. It has a lot of great potential!
