Links - a bit late! - for week commencing 24th September

From David Bradley, Science writer:

I was looking for an asynchronous whiteboard, because the tool in Blackboard is itnended for use during synchronous sessions.
Online collaborative whiteboard: Skrbl
http://www.skrbl.com/

What we really wanted was a Wiki that could be used as a collaborative mindmap.
I found several reviews of online mindmap tools, and the most useful tool looks like it may be Mindmeister:

Web 2.0 is truly wonderful. Someone has probably invented the application you're looking for - although it may not work with the others you'd like it to and it may not be free - but it often is free, at least at a basic level! It's a good business model. You only buy into the tools you actually find useful.

Which methods and techniques using new technologies are of real use?

Writing in the digital age is so much more than delivering information, or traditional stories and poems electronically. Digital forms of literature can include text, hyperlinks, multi-linear plots, superlinear narrative, graphics, interactivity, animation... and so much more.
