So this going back to school thing is setting in and I have to say that the sheer amount of tools there are out there for students is quite overwhelming.
I was happy to find that I will no longer have to aimlessly wonder around the UW campus in search of a building because there is now an iPhone application that includes a searchable map, student directory, list of classes and other stuff. Though personally, the map is probably what I would use the most.
Then my friend Marco tipped me off to this great list from Mashable.com of top 15 web applications for students that includes Zotero, Evernote and other useful apps. Click here for the link.
Here are some other ones that could be useful that I found through various comments and other links:
Doodle - Great for scheduling meetings
http://mathway.com/ - Helps you solve math problems
http://mind42.com/ - Collaboration tool
http://tadalist.com/ - Another one of many to-do list applications that you can share and RSS feed to but is free.
http://Creately.com/ - Online diagramming and design application
All of the sudden I feel like an old person saying "in my days, professors didn't hold office hours via chat rooms..." but I will do my best to adapt to the new way of learning and try to incorporate online tools to it.
In other news, I am very excited about having a Lexus Nexus subscription again!
