I will use Google Documents in the classroom as well. This will eliminate the hassle of my students and their parents buying and carrying around disks and usb storage drives. A Google document is free and no more what computer the students get on they will always be able to access Google documents. With Google documents, my students will be able to write word documents and do presentations among other things.
iTunesU
I plan to use iTunes University in my classroom. This will be useful to me, my students, and parents. I will be able to get great ideas from my peers about assignments. My students will benefit from iTunes by looking at some great podcast videos done by other students. The parents will benefit by visiting iTunes to look at their child's classroom video podcasts and/or listening to the podcasts.

I plan on using these tools daily in the classroom. I feel that it will take me a year or two to get on track with it, but I think once I get it down it will be like riding a bike. I will have to wait to get out there to decide exactly where I will use them in my class, but I will certainly have my students using blogger to post their journals.
