Tammy Worcester is amazing!

Totally amazing array of web 2.0 applications from Tammy Worcester:

• Tammy's page -- it's full of more links and tips than we've listed here. I'm a subscriber.
  
• tinyURL! -- Ever want to share a link with students, have them type it in, but it's huge? In just a few clicks, you can take that big 'un and turn it into a tiny one.
• Google Forms -- it's part of Google Docs, which is amazing in itself. Ever want to make survey? This is the way to do it, or have students take an online quiz? you can do it with Google Forms, and it's pretty easy.
• Todays Meet -- want to create a chat that only lasts for a day or maybe a year, this is great.
• Vozme -- type anything you want into the box, and it will turn it into audio. You can then download it and do whatever you like with it. Want to copy and paste a student's paper in here and have them listen to it? No problem.
• imagination cubed -- online paint program, very simple, but effective.
• sketch odopod -- online art making. It records your every brush move and turns that into a movie, so you can watch the art being formed, just like PBS! The gallery of artists, better than I could ever do, is really cool just to watch!
• Jing -- do it, seriously. This is the the one tool I've vowed to take this one and use it. Use it as an amazing screen capture and annotation device, or use it to make annotated movie tutorials for your students. Super easy to boot.
• my avatar editor -- have students create a character or themselves in this easy to use, very wii like avatar editor. Save the picture as a .png and you can put your self onto any picture you like, and a speaking bubble, and you've got a whole new fun way to add yourself into a powerpoint.
• spelling city -- if you know a kid who takes spelling tests, this is really, really cool. I would have loved to have this one as a kid. Type in the words, it makes sentences, quizzes, games, and it's sweet.
• wordle -- type in a passage, and it will visually turn it into a word of art that show the main idea, very cool.
• fur.ly -- ever want to show a handful or a bunch of websites to a student all at once? This tool will take as many websites as you'd like to throw at a student, and turn it into one url. How cool is that?

Those are the sweet links, but you should be here to check out all the gadgets and gizmos. Plus, they're giving a bunch of them away! We'll see if any of us come back with loot.
