Next Meeting Friday Morning at 10

Yesterday, 34 people logged in to attend the session on free cloud-based tools for educators.  We demonstrated how Google docs can be useful for collaboration, publishing, collecting information and managing a lot of files as well as replacing expensive, propietary software like Microsoft Office.  We also talked about storing files using tools including dropbox.com, Windows Live Skydrive and Amazon's Clouddrive.  Jerry demonstrated several cool image editors, including Photoshop.com, Picnik, and phixr.com.

There was a fair amount of interest among those attending in mind mapping software and using wikis.  If these are topics that interest you too, you might want to attend the session tomorrow at ten AM that will demo those tools and a few others.  Hope to see you then!
