TOP 10 TOOLS 2009
Stephanie Holden

I work in the Learning & Development department of a medium sized company in the south of England.  I have been gradually introducing Web 2.0/social media tools into our "learning mix" - and here are some of my (and my users') favourites.

Stephanie's Top 10 Tools as at 2 August 2009

  1. Yammer - our internal real-time messaging tool
  2. Etherpad - for "real" real-time collaboration
  3. Google Sites - an easy way to get a web/wiki site up and running
  4. Audacity and Jing - more and more of our people are using these tools to create podcasts and screencasts
  5. Elgg - we have just set up our new collaboration platform using Elgg - cost effective, and I'm getting addicted to it - we are using it for networking, blogging, bookmarking - and it'll probably take over some of the other tools I've mentioned above
  6. Google Maps - I need to go out on visits from time to time, and couldn't do without Google Maps on my iPhone
  7. Evernote - I'm also getting hooked on this note taking tool for my iPhone too
  8. Freemind - I've only just got into mindmapping and am finding it a very useful tool for capture ideas for design of learning projects
  9. Basecamp - I use this to manage learning projects
