I'm a former teacher. I worked at Tom Snyder Productions for 16 years in professional development and product development. Some of the products I worked on include Timeliner XE, Thinking Reader, Decisions, Decisions: Current Events, and Neighborhood MapMachine.
I just started an edtech consulting business to help schools make the most of web 2.0 tools as well as other free web tools such as Google Apps, Google Earth, Scratch etc.
I'm also volunteering one day a week at my daughter's elementary school to help the teachers with technology.

A couple of "safe" Web 2.0 tool I recommend you take a look at are Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service.

I've used OurClassSpace.com.
There's a fee, but it's secure, so well worth it.
Actually, Ning is perfect for that. I use Ning for my AP US history class.
