The advent of web2.0 means you can now store your files online instead of on your own computer. What advantages does this have? Well, it makes it easy to share your precious stuff with friends and colleagues without actually being in the same place as them. Just send them a link to your host website and they can view all your recent holiday snaps.
For teachers, these hosting sites allow us to make online content, like blogs and wikis, and link or embed files into them. These can be viewed, and created, from any machine with an internet connection, so less time is needed in MMC's.
For audio files, try podomatic or odeo
You can share pictures and photos at flickr and perhaps even better, you can get free photos to use on your blogs from flickrstorm
Bubbleshare allows you to create photo albums and add captions.
To share a video, you could try kaltura
There are more links on similar themes on the right-hand side of this blog - check them out.
Next up is how to use these sites with our classes .....

Introduction to BC Lisbon Blog
Hi Everyone
To kick off with, why not have a look at a couple of blogs I've been doing with my classes. You can see them under the 'Our class blogs' header on the right. If you have any to show, just add them to the list. To do this, click on customise at the top right of the page, then in the our class blogs rectangle, click on edit and add your link.
Also, why not take a look at the links under the 'websites for bloggers' header. Info on how to use these will follow shortly.
