Choose two of your favorite Web 2.0 sites and review them on your blog. Give reasons for your recommendations.
Facebook.com~ I think facebook is a wonderful way for people to share and stay connected. It gives the user a way to stay connected to friends and family and allows them to share a wide variety of information. As for classroom usage, facebook is a great way to keep teachers and students connected 24/7. Students can get help with assignments or ask questions at any time. With this current age of smart phones, facebook makes it easy to stay connected.
Wikipedia.org~This is a wonderful site. It brings the big, bulky encyclopedias of yesteryear to the computer savy youth of today. It makes looking up something quick and simple. This site is great because it makes research easy for students and therefore makes students more likely to use it. Plus, wikipedia is a constant work in progress. People are allowed to make changes and add to the site to help it improve. This can give the students a sense of power over the site.
