LearnCentral is a new social learning network for education, sponsored by Elluminate. More than a social network or a learning community, this free, open environment represents the next logical step of combining asynchronous social networking and the ability to store, organize, and find educational resources with the live, online meeting and collaboration provided by Elluminate technology.

Not just for Elluminate customers, LearnCentral is for any educator who is passionate about teaching and learning and wants to find and connect with like-minded colleagues to share content, develop best practices, and collaborate on a global level. While still in its early stages, LearnCentral has the potential to make a significant historical difference in how educators work together for professional development in their own careers.

"People to People International's School and Classroom Program is a free service that connects teachers and their students with classes in other countries for pen pal exchanges and projects that improve cultural understanding and encourage friendship. Classes are matched according to similar age and number of pupils to form partnerships. Students interact by exchanging traditional paper letters or email messages supervised by their teacher, who receives a program manual for guidance. Teachers may form partnerships with classes in multiple countries and work together for one or more school years.

Primary, middle and secondary-school classes and youth groups (grades kindergarten-12) from all countries are welcome. To join, we ask teachers or adults, who supervise students, to register. Registration is open during July - October. Registrations submitted before or after this time will be held for the following semester or school year. We will contact you to discuss options."

One Million Monkeys Typing is a community story-telling site.

1. Read
Start reading. When you finish a snippet of text, click 'read more'. You will be presented with three unique paths that continue the story. If you like your options, keep reading.

2. Write
If you reach an end, or simply don't like the story's trajectory, graft a new snippet and take the story's direction into your own hands.

3. Publish
Publish so that others may add on to your story. If it gets ranked well and has enough offshoots it stays, if not, watch it wither
and die.

GROU.PS is a social applications platform that gives you all the tools you need to keep your online community connected.



More formally, we call our product a social groupware - some also call it DIY social network, or white label social network. But technically speaking, we prefer the term social operating system to describe what we do here.



GROU.PS gives you a bunch of modules that you choose from and mash up very easily! You can enrich your site with blocks too; blocks allow you to copy/paste 3rd party widgets into your site.
