How might we make student self-organization more appealing?

All the tools we've been playing with in this module are way more fun than using an agenda or a regular notebook. I like all of them, but for now Wall Wisher seems like the easiest to use and like it would seem the least like schoolwork. Just the fact that you can personalize it and move things around, add pictures and videos... I think it would be great for students who need to improve their organizational skills. Granted, I am mostly a Lower School teacher so that does always factor in when I'm forming an opinion about something. :)Bubbl.us is something a bit more serious in my mind and I think I'll definitely use it when planning new units etc., so I can immediately see how it can be useful for students doing research projects or planning anything that requires a lot of smaller tasks to be done in order for the end-result to be what they want it to be.
