I have recently begun using Scoop.it! It's a useful tool that enables you to set up Web pages that gather together links on a specific topic. Scoop.it provides a facility for you to "curate" information on your topics by trawling the Web and finding links that you may wish to add to your topic pages. The links are then laid out attractively like the page of a magazine: http://www.scoop.it/
I have set up two Scoop.it pages:
Computer Assisted Language Learning
http://www.scoop.it/t/computer-assisted-language-learning
Virtual World Language Learning
http://www.scoop.it/t/virtual-world-language-learning
And I follow other people's pages on related topics. As well as being useful for setting up permanent resources, Scoop.it could be used by students for creating one-off magazines.

Thanks, jmb! I'll have a look at your link. I don't maintain a large list of links at the ICT4LT site, and the Scoop.It links are just a small sample. I do, however, maintain a large list of links at http://www.camsoftpartners.co.uk/websites.htm
Checking out the Scoopit tool. Thanks for sharing it Mr. Davies.
