Pearltrees game play is pretty simple, but its potential is limited solely by your imagination:

Discover other users' pearltrees with the search box or the minipearl.
Team up with others to curate the pearltrees you like

3.Facebook is the best way to make a PLN and to collaborate in groups and make facebook pages giving people the power to share and make the world more open and connected. Facebook it is also an incredible learning tool in XII Century Education . Teachers and educators can utilize Facebook for class projects, for enhancing communication and collaboration and for engaging students in a manner that might not be entirely possible in traditional classroom settings. On facebook you can add photos , videos , presentations and much , much more applications and for this reason I invite you to join and post on main page of #edtech20 project with 350 fans .
4.LinkedIn is a tool where you can make a PLN Professional Learning Network and was built for professionals who want to use their existing and future social networks to build a career. LinkedIn is not like MySpace and Facebook. It’s not where teenagers post photos , videos and presentations with their activities
The LinkedIn profile is exactly like a resume, but it holds a lot more information. It includes fields for education, jobs, experience, interests, awards and honors, and personal information. Most people use LinkedIn to “get to someone” , to connect and collaborate in order to make a sale, form a partnership, or get a job.
5.Diigo has become one of the most popular social bookmarking services used by educators and it is a gr8 opportunity for Delicious and I like very much this edtool . Diigo offers good tools for highlighting, annotating, bookmarking, and sharing what you like on the Internet. Diigo is an effective tool for teaching because Diigo's features allow teachers to highlight critical features within text and images and write comments directly on the web pages, to collect and organize series of web pages and web sites into coherent and thematic sets, and to facilitate online conversations within the context of the materials themselves. Diigo also allows teachers to collaborate and share resources among themselves. Diigo is much more than a simple web annotation or social bookmarking service -- it is a new kind of online research and collaborative research tool that integrates tags and folders, highlighting and clipping, sticky notes, and group-based collaboration, enabling a whole new process of online knowledge management, learning, and teaching in the information age.Diigo group #edtech20 With Version 5.0, Diigo moves one step further towards its vision of providing the best cloud-based personal information management (PIM) service that enables users to collect, highlight, access and share a variety of information, on a variety of devices.
