Delicious - Cannot imagine living or working without delicious anymore, ideal for classes building and sharing research and items of interest
 

Google Reader - Efficient to have this reader coming up on my google home page to be checked regularly
 

Skype - Again, couldn’t imagine living without Skype for connections far and wide and for easy access to my widespread network of colleagues
 

Wikispaces - The easiest of the wikis for students learning how to build information collaboratively. Works well in class environments
 

Second Life - Second Life is really becoming an extension of what we do in our first life, including learning
 

Twitter - Good for instant connection and sharing. Prefer to get announcements, opinions or interesting links, rather than the answer to what are you doing that is requested.
 

Moodle - Ideal for structured communications and a central platform for a community e.g My.edu.au
 

Slideshare - Other educators have provided excellent resources from Slideshare and slidecast, and I have been inspired to use it too!
 

Photostory - Easy to use for digital story telling, powerful tool for learners to express themselves with. Also like Animoto for this purpose
