3 Tools to Explore: 1) [|Visual Thesaurus] - Here is another visual tool. I must admit that using the Visual Thesaurus is much more interesting than looking for a word in the //Roget's Thesaurus// that I've used forever. BHS subscribes to this service, and Linda said that we could try it. Here are the email and password that you'll need: email - words@bhs.org password - bison

2) Bubbl.us - is a free visual brainstorming site. It reminds me of Inspiration except that it doesn't have the variety of shapes, etc. but it does allow for collaboration. You invite your friends to share in your creation - it doesn't look hard to do at all.

3) Mind42.com - another free visual tool. This one allows you to add links, files, and images. It also allows for collaboration.

4) Gapminder.org - moving visuals & graphics. This is a great way to understand complex relationships. The link is to some TED videos where a specific topic is explained.

5) Webspiration - Looks like Inspiration for the web. The new aspect, as you might guess, is collaboration.
