Most of the above represent some kind of online tools and services.  Other kinds of tools being used to create ePortfolios include:

• Hosted web services such as: Geocities: http://geocities.yahoo.com/; Google Sites: http://www.google.com/sites/overview.html; Tripod: http://www.tripod.lycos.com/; Weebly: http://www.weebly.com/
• Blogs, for example: WordPress: http://wordpress.com/; Weebly: http://www.weebly.com/; Blogger: https://www.blogger.com/start

• Social Networking Sites such as: Orkut, http://www.orkut.com/Main#About.aspx [UNC Pembroke]; ELGG (3): http://elgg.org/  ELGG is now a social site; it was sold as a commercial product while ago --Trent
• Wikis, for example: PBWiki: http://pbwiki.com/; Wikispaces: http://www.wikispaces.com/site/for/teachers; WetPaint Wiki: http://wetpaint.com
• Common desktop tools (paraphrasing Dr. Helen Barrett who described them as the following): "common desktop tools are still a big player in the K-12 schools...they want to use the tools that they already 

  have in place. These tools are what Steve Ehrmann calls "worldware" and I think they are widely used (Microsoft Office, Dreamweaver, iLife, iWork, etc.). A lot of K-12 schools don't have the Internet bandwidth to maintain a web-based portfolio..."  Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft SharePoint (which is partially based on Front Page technologies) also fall into this category:

  • Adobe ePortfolio: http://www.adobe.com/education/products/acrobatpro/video-portfolio.html?trackingid=EXAKG
