Webby awards voting is open now. Very cool. Voting closes May 1st and some cool things are there. How about having students vote (but check the sites in a category first!)

Do You Read Blocked Blogs? at Change Agency – Annotated
Bud the Teacher and Stephanie Sandifer are planning an I read blocked blogs day. This is going to be an event for educators advocating access. It would also be a great time to talk about ways to monitor when you provide access.
This also happens to be the first aspect of ad4dcss and we've listed it on the wiki. They have shirts that people can get and buttons for your blog.

Phenomenal page about integrating ICT into the classroom witha wide variety of rubrics based upon Bloom's taxonomy. You'll see blog journaling, wiki editing, threaded discussion, bookmarking rubrics, search rubrics, podcasting rubrics, audio conferencing, data analysis, and collaborative rubrics. I haven't been through all of these but would love it if we could go through them and work on them.
They are in PDF format, but it would be great to share and edit them collaboratively. Very nice website.

This is an excellent article that has been reposted. It includes a lot of the information that outlines WHAT web 2.0 is. This includes videos and many important hyperlinks. Excellent article for newcomers to web 2.0 to pick up on.

Website that lets you make logos. I could picture students using this to design logos for their projects. I often have my team design a logo like a crest to represent things about the team. It forces them to think deeply about what they want their team to do.

You didn’t highlight one of my favorite shortcuts–Shift+F3 to change the case. Ever accidentally leave the Caps Lock on? This is what fixes it without having to retype your text. Mostly I use it now for removing capitals from article titles for APA citations, where all but the first word should be lower case.
By the way, the ability for people to comment on your links is one advantage of having them posted in your blog rather than splicing the feeds together. I get a surprising number of comments on bookmark posts. Have you had the same experience?
I liked the Tech Integration Matrix. I think it was a bit too light in terms of only providing one example of an integration activity for each possibility but I can definitely see its use. Does anyone have another resource like it that lists more possibilities for each area? Also, I noticed that the samples were disproportionately skewed towards the earlier grade levels. I can see this site being very useful once there are samples for multiple grade levels and multiple disciplines under each of these headings. Otherwise, it is a very nice start.
