Thing 1- Tools of the Trade
The best place to put a projector is the ceiling as its risk free. There is no risk of tripping over it and breaking it or hurt yourself or even loose cables because you dont have to move it a lot as you'll do on desktop or ground.It's a very helpful technology which lets teachers show anything they want easily and share their ideas within the class.Its a must for every teacher to have a projector.
Thing 2 - Web 2.0
The video was great and it was full of great facts.The video made me realize how useful and fun studying technology can be.
Web 2.0 are a series of really really useful tools and one which I think is interesting is SnapYap and with it you can communicate with your friends and family live and they'll be able to see you too and its really really hassle free as its straight and downloadproof.

Thing 3- Blogs
Blogs have become increasingly popular nowadays.They are really helpful too.We can use it for class works too.We can create a free blog for our homework and class work help at blogger.com.Teachers can ceate blog for helping students like us with our homework and blogs can also help us in many ways.It's really really useful.
Thing 4- RSS Feed Readers
RSS Feed Readers is a really really useful tool to keep up with the changing world.It gives you all the updated information that saves your valuable time from getting wasted.The good things about it is that it always keeps you up to date with latest new.Well theres nothing bad but for the constant updates you may become unorganized.
Thing 5 - Educational Bookmarking/Networking
I like everything about delicious.com,its such a great site,it lets people search and share the websites of their choice and best of all its free!These are some of the good things about it.Another good thing is that if you want to search for a particular kind of website,there are tags like Education,Games,Movies and much much more.Theres nothing I hate about it.This site can be used for education in a lot of ways.For example people can set up an education tag full of social education sites and share it with other people.The people may then go to to those sites and become a member of that particular site and join the social education.I joined Maculspace and classroom 2.0.These kind of sites change the way students learn as we students like technology study rather learning by the old ways.We like to visit various websites so these kind of sites are really really important nowadays.
Thing 6 - Wiki's
A wiki (derived from the Hawaiian term for quick) is essentially a small piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web content using any Web browser and no other special tools. Wikis have several unique properties compared with other kinds of collaborative communication forums. Any and all information being aggregated in a wiki can be changed or deleted by anyone and so it can help in a lot of ways,for example you're searching for a word you can easily look up the meaning at the free encyclopedia produced by wiki users or if you are having a group project you can look up all the information on the project and store it without any problem.Then other members of your group can access,add and edit that content.This creates an organized social networking and easier then emailing.
Thing 8 - Google Docs
The Google Docs is really useful in terms of studying together although people will be at their own home they can use the google docs to study with them,it's easy communication and study at the same time.But it has one really undeniable bad thing about the documents can be edited so if something gets deleted from there its gone forever and you have to retype it again.But this bad think also comes handy like I said before you can edit the content for any mistakes and study together and get help from your class mates who are logged in.
Thing 9 - Google Spreadsheets
Its a great stuff to use,I liked it a lot,by this you can learn and may befriend some of the who surf your blog even you can use it as an office interview and it can even be used for tests by teacher.They'll just type in their questions and you'll answer
Thing 10 - Google Presentations
Google Presentation is really easy to use and you can share a lot of things using this.But the thing that I disliked about this is that because of constant editing the page refreshes and interferes with the work you're doing but that doesnt delete the stuff you have done but still if you use it you'll understand how annoying it is.
But overall google presentation is one good place to share and as I said before its easy to use,its actually like microsoft powerpoint.If you have anything to present than this is your place.

Thing 12 - Google Start Page
The google start page is helpful and has some helpful gadgets that comes in use often and its well organised too but one thing that I really really hated is that theres a noticibly scarce of gadgets at the moment which their competitor yahoo has got a whole bunch.Yahoo at the moment is the best communication service but google is
Thing 17 - Online sharing of Photo's and Images
There are many cool sites for uploading and keeping your pictures safe like Photobucket,Flickr etc.Theres nothing bad about those sites but you have to be atleast 14 years old or older to join.So young people who want to join create fake accounts which is illegal.But overall those are really fun to use and useful websites.
