Despite a really annoying subscription prompt that flies into the screen from all directions, this article is a useful adjective-free summary of the reporting around the recent e-Literate-Mindwires announcement that Canvas as surpassed Blackboard. It's an interesting take because missing in all this discussion has been Moodle, and it's worth noting that Blockboard owns a couple of Moodle hosting services. I do like the approach of "background reading/foreshadowing" leading up to "the reveal". Then the "aftermath", in which there is "no new world order". Again, it's all LMSs. I think the world is moving on.
