I’ve never heard of two of the tools on the second webpage, The 100 Best Web 2.0 Classroom Tools Chosen By You.
FotoFlexer, an image-modifying program, is a tool that I’ve never heard of. I’m sure it’s very similar to photoshop in its capabilities, but the advertising for this particular tool is rather poor. The website and various online searches show me advertisements for enhancing muscle definition, or for achieving inhuman proportions in an encouraging tone, as though they intended for this tool to be used to modify pictures of people who wish for more muscles, less fat, or an unrealistic picture in general. From what I’ve seen, these advertisements take a professional level of skill, not to mention other applications, to achieve some of the magical transformations that people have ‘achieved’ with it. Personally, it seems like a scam to me, but I can see a definite classroom application with projects or a fun way to add pictures to an assignment for students.
eJucomm is a website dedicated to the “eJucomm project” by a few founders. They claim that this application that is downloadable, eJucomm, is a way to connect family and the community through means of mobile phones, when they otherwise would not be able to access the internet or their childrens’ grades/information. I think that it’s a very situational problem, and a very situational application, but their website was promoting the application like it was the end of world wars or similar.
