Web 2.0 tools, apps and resources...

…are abundantly available on the Internet and can be very useful in helping organise both your work and your life. However, they are so numerous that it can often seem like more trouble than it's worth finding the quality ones. This is where I would recommend Phil Bradley’s free online guide to Web 2.0 (http://www.philb.com/iwantto.htm). Things are arranged in categories to make it easy to identify what you're looking for, e.g. ‘calendars’, ‘mindmapping’, ‘presentation software’, ‘project management’, ‘screen recording’ and many dozens more. I would highly recommend checking it out!
