Web 2.0 workshop

This is one of the best workshops I have attended in the recent past. I have a chance to experiment with many Web 2.0 tools and I am liking every bit of it. I have been seeing the RSS thing everywhere for sometime, now I have an idea how to use it. Kudos Annet and Patty for putting this together for us!!

WEB LEARNING

Top 25 Web 2.0 Apps to Help You LEARN

Bookmarks

Go to Delicious and see what everbody else is tagging. You will stumble upon very usefull sites in your areas of interest.

Delicious

Nothing has changed the way I work with bookmarks and favorites like Delicious!! I have been using it for over one year now. I can carry my bookmarks with me wherever I go. What is beautiful is I can share my tags with my friends. I can also decide what to make public and private (visible and invisible to my friends), which is another cool thing about it.

AND WITH DELICIOUS, YOU DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE BROWSER YOU ARE USING!!
