CampFireNow
This is a great way to collaborate on projects with other classrooms or schools. The 21st Century Learning and Innovation Skills that could be covered by this tool are:
Creativity and Innovation #2,#3
Communication and Collaboration #1,#2,#3,#4
Critical Thinking and Problem Solving #4
The NETS that we feel are being met are:
Creativity and Innovation #2
Communication and Collaboration #1,#4
Research and Information Fluency #1
Critical Thinking, Problem Solving & Decision-Making #2
Digital Citizenship #2
You have to have an email address, for free it only allows four chatters at one time but you can upgrade for $'s, and you can have different rooms (more research needs to be done to see if it will allow more than four chatters if they are using different rooms).

MapWing
Mapwing makes it easy to build, share, and explore virtual tours. Use Mapwing to turn your digital photos into virtual tours that include interactive maps, images, and comments. Then, share your virtual tours with friends, clients, or the entire world. This tool can be used to make a tour of places as well as for concepts like digestion. It would be a nice add on to a Community Walk, if possible. It could be used to tell a story that travels.
See an example of a Helena Map we created at: http://www.mapwing.com/explore/view_tour.php?t=UUC4X4X4pUXnX8n

What can we say about Twitter? It could be a very useful application. It has great potential if you have the patience to set it all up. All followers of the text (IMs or phone text messages) need to have one of three types of accounts (yahoo, gmail, or hotmail). Once you have an account, you can add followers. It takes some time to navigate through the site to figure out how to add followers.
Now that you have followers added, any time you send one a message, they all see it! It's that simple. So, when you send a text message from your phone, all following that IM will be able to see what was sent.

Zotero: Research File management tool
Our tool is Zotero covers the NETS Standard is #3 Research and Information fluency
21st Century Skill Communication and Collaboration
No project was made. It is really an extensive file management tool for research and/or collaborative projects. Can only be used on Firefox. It is an extension of Firefox.
The ways it can be used: saves searches from libraries, keep folders, take notes on articles, have the article available itself and use sticky notes, word doc and will cite it correctly using APA, MLA or others. Capture feature in databases, newspapers, and libraries. In the collections you can write notes, save the articles, and tags are made automatically from library searches.
File management is done for you, files can be shared too. A three column window shows folders, files and word document with highlights. Files, webpage or original document can appear within this tool, after all are saved. Citations are extracted from the article.
Web pages can archived as well.
I hope this description helps. Download the tour and listen to the powerful tools it offers. zotero.org
