Bloglines: This site collects and organizes all your blog (or any RSS) feeds. And it's free. There are some potentially pedagogical applications that leap to mind: research - all the news comes to you; community - share your favorites and explore your students' collections; save time - if your students have their own blogs this one stop will save you a bunch of time...
Odeo: This site was cool when it only provided podcasting subscriptions, but now it can do so much more. Once you register (and it's free!), you can create your own audioblog without the need for any recording software. Granted, you won't be able to edit without some extra tools, but as there is no time limit, why bother editing?! You can even set up your account to record phone in messages that are then instantly blogged. And you can quickly make your channel public allowing anyone with interest subscription potential. This is very cool! Think about having your students record their oral reports, engage in debates, dramatic readings of poems, etc....
