Patrick's Top 10 Tools as
at 12 August 2007
-
Google Reader
- a bit overwhelming at times,
but still the hands down best resource
for learning
-
Blogger -
my think aloud. This is where
conversation begins and ends with me.
-
Google Notebook
- I use this for focused research when I
need to compile a list of sources for
myself or others.
-
iShowU -
Best cost to performance ratio I have
found in a screencaster
-
Audacity
- still simple, still perfect
-
Zamzar -
Converts just about anything on the fly
and offers a simple downloadable file
-
Skype -
How I connect to people much brighter
than myself
-
twitter
-
My new favorite thing. Quick,
ubiquitous, and networked.
-
del.icio.us
-
I use this more as a searchable catalog of links rather than an organizational tool
-
Firefox -
As many have said, this is the home
base. Completely customized and
suited to what I need it to do
