Collaborative Note Taking with Todaysmeet.

If you are thinking about using a Web 2.0 tool for collaboration, there is not a better way to get started than with TodaysMeet. It is simple to set up, no user name or password required and students type their name into your meeting room to get started. Thank you to Heidi Hayes Jacobs for showing us this tool.
