Spring Cleaning My Web2.0 Applications


Spring is here and it is the perfect time to get my online life organized....

The introduction of web2.0 tools such as social networking sites have allowed educators to share, collaborate, and reflect. I think these practices are important to improve our individual teaching practices and there is not always time at school to do this. The only probLinklem I have is tending to each of my social networking groups.

Right now, I am keeping up with educational blogs via Google Reader.

I check twitter via cell and web access.

I attempt to keep up with classroom20.com, but have made very few contributions.

I post to my blog, classroom homepage, and school wide book study on various websites.

There has got to be a way to keep them all together. I know programs are being developed to mix these web2.0 application, but I haven't found one that I am super fond of. What is everyone else using to keep track of all these groups and sites?
