More Cool Web 2.0 Tools

This is short list of some really cool tools I have come across through my feeds. I have already fallen in love with the first three on the list and am about to get to know #4 much better.

Mygazines.com provides free uploaded mags online we can all enjoy. Are there copyright issues here?

Flowgram.com is a great app. that allows you to upload and/ create unique presentations while adding audio, notes and other content to them. It is something similar to Voice thread only BETTER for presentation purposes, not as good however for collaborative work and feedback, which is really the beauty of Voicethread!

Go Animate is a web app. that brings animations to life with themed characters, audio, backgrounds, sound effects. I just recently go very excited about toondoo , using it to generate cartoon strips. Go Animate however, breathes life into your toons as you organise your stories along a time line.

Finally there is PicLIts.

"PicLits.com is a creative writing site that matches beautiful images with carefully selected keywords in order to inspire you. The object is to put the right words in the right place and the right order to capture the essence, story, and meaning of the picture."

Update: For a wonderful collection of web 2.0 tools (one of the best I've come across) go to Cooltools.

PLAYING WITH GLOG

Our Director of Studies put me onto a nifty little web application which allows you to easily create displays from text, photos, videos etc. Glogster.com is very user friendly and allows one to achieve really novel results with very little effort. I have included a link to a glog I created very quickly with the odd picture I had lying around on the Mac.
