Visual Literacy

Great list of Visual Diagram options. Lots of concepts. Great collections.

Thanks to Caleb at #edcamp

Excellent graphics and animations of complex biological science topics as well as virtual experiments you could not do in a normal public school classroom.

Search engine that pulls up social media info as well as general web: Flickr, YouTube, Twitter sorted by type. Lots of info all at once.

See his other bites too on Flickr plenty on on internet/education etc

Simple as 1, 2, 3 -- choose an effect, upload an image, then either save, email, print, blog or upload to a social networking website. Some effects available: Photo to Sketch, Alien Vision, Amazing Goo (this one allows you to click & drag your mouse to 'morph' parts of the image) NOTE: Though most effects are free, there is a paid Pro version which "As a member, you get access to the latest effects, additional image hosting storage, and option to save high resolution images (where supported.)". Can upload jpegs, gifs & pngs NOTE: Who owns the coypright on the generated images? For all effects, other than Museumr and Celebrity Paparazzi, the owner of the original photo is the owner of the processed result.

Share & uses only Flickr images. Book may have as many pages as you want. PLUS: embedded search feature only searches Creative Commons MINUS: Cover page, the title is a fixed location. Inside pages are static in terms of layout - image on top; text (not sure the limit on # of characters) along the bottom. From what I can see, the search only results in a limited number of images from Flickr. Also, I do not see a citation section, so am not able to properly cite the images used. You can send your completed 'book' as an email attachment or embed it into a blog/webpage. NOTE: Once you click 'Publish' there is NO going back to edit.

"First, you upload your content (photos, video, music) into your One True Media account, or add from popular sites such as Facebook, Flickr or Photobucket. Second, use the content you just uploaded to create a video montage. Third, share your creation with others online or with TiVo and/or buy a DVD copy of your Montage." "First, click on the "Join Us" link on the top of the page. Second, create an account for yourself. It's fast, easy, and safe. Then, start creating your first video montage!"
