To Blog Or Not To Blog, That Is The Question!

Why I created this blog.

I have to give a presentation in a graduate class in a few weeks about web 2.0 and one of the things I want to talk about is blogging. I created this blog to use in that presentation and to showcase what I think are some interesting web 2.0 sites. It is my goal to update this blog once a week with a list of at least three "cool" web 2.0 links. Here is the list of links for this week:

• google labs: Google calls this their "technology playground." I hadn't been to this site in a while and I was pleasantly surprised by some of the ideas they are working on. This is where I came across the free blogging tool that I am using right now!
• go2web20: This site claims that it is "the complete web 2.0 directory." I don't know if this is true but I do know that I could spend days exploring the sites in this directory!
• sign generator: The last site I am showcasing is something just for fun. This is an example of a site that allows users to edit images. I used this site to create the image above that I plan on using in my upcoming presentation.

I hope you find these sites useful and that you will come back. In my next post, I will be discussing the trials and tribulations of creating my first podcast.
