Storybird is a website dedicated to cultivating storytelling and collaboration. I love that this site allows users (students) to create beautiful narratives without having to worry about formatting. Educational applications: ESL students could use a storybird to illustrate idioms, create visual dictionaries, elaborate on content learned in class, supplement personal narratives, and create visual aids for speeches. Since storybirds aren't printable, students would need to create a storybird and present them using a projector (or take screen shots and a slideshow application).
