Electronic Portfolios

I am creating an electronic portfolio using Weebly. I would welcome any comments or feedback on my beginning attempt at creating an interactive portfolio. I would also encourage anyone who is creating an online portfolio to copy concepts you may find. Check out the videos segments if you would like some ideas on Web 2.0 tools for use in your classroom.
Enjoy!

TitanPad


Titan Pad is a great way to collaborate with others in real time. You set up an account and then send the link to join the TitanPad to others. (They do not need to create an account! They can just join when they receive the invite!) It allows you to track the conversation in different colors for different users and another neat feature is the playback of the conversation using the Timeslider.
Check out this Youtube video demo!
