I was doing a little surfing around and discovered a blog in which the writer was providing viewers with a list of his 15 favorite Web 2.0 tools. I decided to check out a few that I was unfamiliar with. On was a site called CommunityWalk where users can create their own Google-esque maps complete with markers for places and provide images of those places. This would be a great educational tool for students to create virtual field trips of a city, town, state, or country. Users can also copy and then paste the code necessary to post their map on to their blog or web page. This could be a really cool tool for visual projects. In my playing with it, I created a map showing the schools within my district. It should appear below.
