I found this website while reading Professor Sue Glascoe's blog. This website offers a great program that allows teachers to create interactive "posters" on the internet. These posters can have almost anything on them including, class announcements, assignments, class notes, letters to parents, etc. I think this is a great use of technology and the control can actually be given to the students, depending on the grade level. In my classroom I would use this to post announcements for our class, feature student work (parent permission required), and other important aspects of our class. I want students to have something that they can really enjoy and something that will assist them as well.  The only downside to the site is that you have to pay a fee for using it. On a brighter note if the entire school buys it, it is only about two dollars per account a year!
