Thing #19

When thinking about what is special about the tool, the site says it best when describing what it does, "After scouring the web for Web 2.0 sites both new and old, we developed a "short list" of over three-hundred sites in forty-one categories. From there, we had some of the web's best bloggers, entrepreneurs and business people vote on winners, narrowing the field to 174 place-getters and Honorable Mentions."

There are sooo many web sites, web tools, web helps, etc. out there that it's impossible for one person or group to informed and accurate about them all. That's what makes this site so valuable. It seems that they've included everything! I was pleased to see that most of the things in this program are highly rated by the awards committee. We're learning to use the best!
I will use this site a lot. Whenever I'm considering using the web with students, a valuable part of my research will be to check this site.
