September 26, 2007
Commentary by Stephen Downes

Post outlining the addition of new social software features to Blackboard. Interesting because of the discussion of the terminology.

Meanwhile, on the Desire2Learn front, Barry Dahl has been writing a series on embedding web 2.0 applications inside D2L.
