Web 2.0 applications

1. Khan Academy is a website to which I've already referred, and other teachers outside of this class have brought it up and referred to it. It's a big resource that we can only hope continues to grow.2. Bubblesnap might be a good way to introduce basic graphic storytelling to my design classes, and also serve as entree to advertising—tying interesting words and images together to get across an overarching message.
3. TeacherTube also stands as a good, large library of resources to present to students and use for reference.

I get the sense that many of the Web 2.0 apps we looked at cover a lot of the same ground—multiple brainstorming sites, targeted video sites, class information apps, presentation tools and more. The three I posted here, and on our class Wiki, all represent Web 2.0 services I might actually use in class; in the case of TeacherTube, I already have.
