Jeff's Top 10 Tools as at 30 March 2008

  1. Delicious – Del.icio.us has become one of my primary tools for personal knowledge management. Pretty much anything I find interesting and worth returning to is bookmarked there. http://del.icio.us/jcobbm2l

  2. Google Reader – Another key tool for personal knowledge management and daily learning. I hope to start taking more advantage of some of the sharing functionality soon.

  3. Audacity  – I’m starting to do much more with audio, and Audacity really is a pretty incredible piece of free software.

  4. iTunes – iTunes, in combination with my iPod, is the source for a lot of the content I listen to and view to when traveling.

  5. Slideshare  –  Perhaps dangerous as a way of proliferating bad presentations, but also a great resources for finding and sharing great content.

  6. Wordpress – My blogging platform of choice. I prefer to have my own installation rather than using WordPress.com.

  7. Ning  – I have yet to built a Ning community, but I have participated in a few, and really like this as a tool for setting up a focused social network.

  8. PBWiki  – A couple of projects I have worked on lately have used PBWiki as a collaboration tool. It’s hard to beat for ease of use.

  9. Articulate Presenter  – For the clients I work with, a tool like Articulate is like a gift from heaven. Combined with Quizmaker and Engage, you can transform PowerPoint into a pretty incredible production tool.

  10. StumbleUpon – I am a fan of formal and informal learning. I’m also a fan of flat out random learning that can help prompt new ideas and catalyze creativity. StumbleUpon is a great tool for this purpose.
