Blogs also make wonderful repositories for student work. This makes it easy to extend the audience outside of the four walls of the classroom. The Coffey Crew, a blog for a second grade classroom, has a nice collection of presentations students put together hosted on SlideShare.

Dangerously Irrelevant has posted a new listing of the top edublogs for 2007. This is an interesting look at the process behind creating the list, which includes combining rank and authority. I think it is an interesting inside look at how data can be used in different ways to yield different results. This blog comes in at number 1944 out of 3634.
