Fwd: FW: Web 2.0 toolkit repository
I came across a website that encapsulates a number of wonderful Web 2.0 tools:
http://jdlasica.com/education2
This site incorporates primarily OSS offerings, for services such as document management, spreadsheets, word processing, development tools, event management, file management, photo editor, web conferencing etc. Using mashups as a backdrop, it would be interesting to see how many of these could actually be used at client locations, to create an integrated view of multiple sources of information.

Blog Concept: Family Blog
We've seen 'em all - Tech Blogs, Professional Blogs, Team Blogs, Hobby Blogs, Personal Blogs, Photo Blogs ... here's not so popular form of it (but something which should have been more common) - Family Blog. Kudos to the Khares of Orange City for maintaining this ...
May be we too should start a blog for our family ...
I write this so I can keep our family (in India and San Francisco) and friends from all over the world up on our latest adventures.
These are our kids: Nikhil, Annika and Vikram.

We live in Orange County, California.
Google Wave - Mindblowing concept
If Google can pull off overcoming all the user interface and usability challenges in implementing this concept - it would present the biggest change in the way we consume information since the advent of the Graphic User Interface or WYSIWYG interface developed in 1970s.

Google unveiled Wave - For consumers, Wave represents Google's answer to the emergence of streaming, or real-time, internet applications, as evidenced primarily by the rise of social networks. A "stream" is represented best by a Twitter homepage or a Facebook News Feed. On those web pages, content flows down the page for you to consume at your leisure. You might comment on a piece of content, share it with friends, or just let it pass downstream without touching it.

Wave seems to embrace this streaming interface by using e-mail and messaging as a starting point. In one fluid view, a Wave homepage includes short messages (think: Twitter), communication with large groups (think: Facebook) and basic collaboration tools to engage with the content (think: instant messaging and e-mail).

Customizing the Help Manuals
Often software products have different set of audiences and the challenge is not to write tutorials for each set but to help them locate the tutorial for meant for them. Mozy.com an online backup service has found a simple way to do this.
While it may not be so striaghtforward for most products, products can try different variants of the selection form above (like a stepwise workflow which helps you find your area).
Google Groups Help also encourages you to search for your doubt before you fire a query and to "force" this habit on users it provides an auto complete of the subject line. :-) Clever eh?
Have we heard this before?
Wowd, in its early stages now, is developing a platform that would help one find the best content online.

How Our News Sources Changed in the Last 200+ Years

Our primary sources of information in the last 200 years - Timeline
In the early 19th century, the only way to get news was face-to-face
communication but that started to change with the advent of printed
newspapers and magazines in the 1900s.
Then came radio, followed by Television which still dominate the
medium but people are quickly moving away from traditional media as
Internet websites and social networks are fast becoming our primary
sources of news and information.
This shift in the way we consume information has been brilliantly
captured in these graphs by Thomas Baekdal who also predicts that
traditional media reporting on newspapers, Television & Radio will
disappear by 2020 to be replaced by social news.
"The traditional journalistic reporting is by now completely replaced
getting information directly from the source. Everyone is a potential
reporter, but new advances in targeting will eliminate most of the
noise. The journalists will turn into editors who, instead of
reporting the news, bring it together [from citizen journalists or
live sources like Twitter] to give us a bigger picture."

Educational Videos
Even more importantly, there are hundreds of videos on mathematics (algebra, calculus, trignometry, probability and more) and physics. Salman has three degrees from MIT and one from Harvard, so he knows what he's talking about.
Anyone, anywhere in the world can benefit — all you need is access to the Internet. A good idea, fantastically implemented.
Thank you, Salman for investing all this time and energy.
