Activating Websites

After our conversation this morning in Reading, Thinking, and Study Skills, I am wondering if anyone knows any useful websites/technology that would be useful for pre reading strategies? In particular, I would like to know of a website that creates crosswords or word searches. Any ideas?

Here are a few that I thought of:
~www.wordle.net for creating webs of vocabulary words
~www.glogster.com for creating a poster or KWL sheet online to show what you already know about a topic or to make a cover page for the new unit
~paint or SmartBoard for making a graphic organizer from a brainstorming session with your class to find out what they already know about a topic
