This list changes. It is not exhaustive. That's what Google is for.
These are my top tools:

Get involved with a community of teachers to organize multinational projects.
http://www.reddit.com/r/TEFL/
Reddit divides its content into subreddits. I recommend you search only within subreddits in your area of interest.

This is a way to make QR codes for free. I am currently experimenting with homework assignments using QR codes and even class-based use for cheap augmented reality lessons.
These are some of the tools I use:
http://www.facebook.com

http://www.linkedin.com
This is your professional profile and within LinkedIn, there are groups of professionals in ELT around the world who can help you. I belong to three groups: TEFL Institute, English Teachers Anonymous, ESL teachers on languagespirit (pending).
Transparency is increasingly important. Being a teacher has never been more of a public profession than it is today.
These are tools I am looking into:
