Introduction
One of the challenges for distance educators is the need to keep up with the steady stream of technological innovations. Yet, this is also one of the great rewards of our positions as well. The fact that we are doing our teaching online means that we can implement these tools immediately and substantially with our students, if we deem them useful and fitting with our instructional goals. This is an exciting time for Internet-based technology, the era of Web 2.0, we are told, and we are provided with a wide range of new tools, tools with a user- (or student-) focused nature that fits well with the social constructivist ideals that many of us share.
