This mind map from Robin Good has to be the best this week listing free or minimal cost online collaboration tools. Feel free to add missing tools (or contact Robin directly).
This week I have a few selected items from Amit over at Digital Inspiration.
Mostly Lisa has a photography contest – vote for your favourite photo on this page
Dana Coffey has a very good netiquette article – I fully agree with the Facebook application thing!
Xobni (an Outlook plug in I couldn’t live without now) has upgraded and has some cool new features. Their blog post is titled Xobni brings the internet into Outlook…4 ways your Outlook will never be the same. Includes integration with Facebook, LinkedIn, Hoovers and Yahoo Mail.
The Windows Live Photo and Video Blog has a nice easy all in one place list of plugins for the betas of Live Photo Gallery and Live Movie Maker including Facebook, YouTube, SmugMug, Flickr, Picasa and Drupal.
I installed Expression Blend and am going to use it to try and produce some Silverlight content if I can. I found this site to be a good source of video training for Expression Blend, and the other Expression web products. Microsoft also has a Learning Snacks page with helpful videos about Silverlight.

If you like Xobni, you should
If you like Xobni, you should check out Gist (www.gist.com). It works with Outlook as well as Gmail and any other web-based information source (LinkedIn, etc.) combining your contacts with news about them.
