Whether you are a nonprofit organization or  small business the need for free and low-cost technology solutions is obvious.  However, knowing where to find them and what is available can be a daunting task.  After all, you are looking for these tools because you didn't have a lot free time in the first place. Even knowing what to call them so you can search may be more than you have time to figure out.

In order to stay up-to-date and maybe even stay ahead of the curve the real trick is not having the answers yourself but rather knowing where to look for them.  Wouldn't it be nice if you could ask 100 people for their best tips?  Good news, Robin Good over at www.masternewmedia.org just did it for you.

Online Collaboration Tools: The Collaborative 2008 Learning Trends Map has more then 150 online tools in 13 categories with a focus on free and low-cost options.  These numbers may be growing by the day since this is an open collaboration project this will continue to grow.  This resource was created by Robin Good with the help of over 100 participants at the Corporate Learning Trends and Innovations 2008 Conference.

This is an excellent resource worth bookmarking.
