In Borrowing from the Library to Support Workplace Learning, Michele Martin gives some great advice and links to several tools.

Hey Harold–I love the Wonder Wheel too! I also saw an article the other day on using it to generate ideas for blog posts that I thought was pretty interesting: http://robertstanke.com/blog/2009/9/16/get-content-ideas-by-using-googles-wonder-wheel.html

Thanks,
