George Siemens suggests that this article is "very important...and has many implications for elearning application developers as well (i.e. LMS)." He makes a good case. The central point is this: "The more complex learning management systems become, the less usable they will be to the average designer/learner. Integration is an over-hyped concept. It has appeal in theory, but practicalities support the value and flexibility of modularized functions." I completely agree with this. Modular development is the way to go. Let people use what they want, and toss away the rest. Let people mix and match applications. Don't integrate - communicate.
