Possible Topics

The following are some possible topics to consider:

• Remember the Words - this service will read text to you, allow you to turn it into a podcast, etc. Countless possibilities for education, accessibility, etc.
• Comparison of different wikis
• User forums - Checkout the free forum hosting by lefora.I have been searching for a tool like this to use for several of our support communities.
• Office 2007 - many are starting to migrate to the new versoin so we probably need some topics on this
• Zoho - I think possibilities are endless here
• Video editing, posting on youtube, etc.
• Audacity

Google Tools! kicks off the series at 1:15 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 7, in Union 213.

Google is organizing the world's information and making it readily available to anyone with an Internet connection. Come take a peek at some of the lesser known tools like Personalized Homepage, Calendar, Picasa, Notebook, and SketchUp.
