This is a collection of tech tools that we think are helpful and valuable. We will be adding to this list, and (better) figuring out an open way to add information and share ideas and tools, so we can all be helping out each other. :-)
Obviously, this page is just a rough draft, but hopefully these tools prove to be helpful for some of you out there.
(This list was initially compiled by David Munir Nabti and Jessica Dheere. Other ideas or suggestions? Add comments below, or register on this website and edit this page.)
