9-A-1 Web Applications
Google Notebook is a tool that I would recommend to students and/or parents of students who have a fear of being published on the web. Since the Google Notebook cannot be edited like a wiki and can be sent only to those email addresses chosen by the learner, it may serve as an alternative for parents who will not allow their children to use other social networking tools. While it is not the open forum of the wiki or the blog, it gives a student a similar experience within a limited setting that may assuage the fears of publication on a wider scope.

Create a free edublog to get your own comment avatar (and more!)
I also like the sites that you have to have a login to participate. This process helps to keep unwanted posts out of the line up
Deb, this is a great solution. Good idea!
