Do You Symbaloo?

Symbaloo is an online webmix tool that allows you to organize your bookmarks into an attractive and easy to access group of tiles.  How does it work?  Once you have signed up (for FREE), you can search for previously created webmixes or make your own.  When making your own webmixes, you can search for tiles (links to websites already created by other users) or make you own using Symbaloo or personally provided graphics.  With color coding and the ability to include a name on each tile, organization is both easy and intuitive.  Some of the other features that make Symbaloo attractive include the following:

• Ability to create and organize multiple webmixes
• Ability to share webmixes via Facebook and Twitter
• Ability to embed webmixes into a blog or Google Site (this is one of my favorite options)
• Ability to make webmixes public or private (could be of use for schools)
• Presence of an active Teacher Forum for educators

On April 9, 2013, a new version of Symbaloo will be released and it promises to be even easier to use than the current release.  Check back for updated tutorials a couple of weeks after the new release!
