Googledocs Googledocs is a powerful tool which enables users to edit a common document at different times and/or locations. Having used Googledocs in the past, I am a firm believer in the power of this resource as a collaborative tool for literacy. I give it 3 thumbs up.

Google Earth with Jim The presentation on Google Earth was a veritable plethora of candy for the mind. The ability to instantly take an instant tour of anywhere in the world truly boggles the mind. The new features in 5.0 give students the ability to see photographs, Wikipedia entries, and a host of other techno-rich resources for the world. I give it a 2 thumbs up.

Google Tools and Staff The picasa with the staff might be a little more difficult. I can see it being used as a tool to present material to the staff (i.e. staff development). You could use it as something fun as far as having them create a slideshow on a certain topic and the staff could pick the one they like and they could win a prize.

Google Tools and Students I went to the picasa session and I can see it used with students as far as having students create picture based project assisgnment. I could also have them create a biography about themselves in order for me/the class to get to know them better:-)
