Thing 5
I believe Web 2.o is mostly about posting and sharing ideas online. People who wouldn't typically be able to communicate are now able to share ideas or stream their thought for any number of people to read at any given time. It really opens up conversations and options for older students. I see seveeral uses for third grade but not as many as for older students and adults. I really enjoyed the site ToonDoo. It's an amazing site where students can create cartoons and publish them on the web or embed them into a blog. I think it is a wonderful site that has a multitude of uses.

Wow, Toon Doo is cool. I don't know I think students of all ages could make use of this site. Just one more thing I would have never found w/o a friend to point the way:)
