I am currently typing as a guest expert in an online MA course in distance learning at Royal Roads and one of the things I said yesterday is that you have to look outside academia to see where the innovations are coming in online learning. This article is a case in point, predicting, as it does, the demise of the large scale content management system industry. This nice, sharp analysis points out that blogging tools - available for free or just a few dollars - provide all the functionality of a CMS without the five or six figure price tag. It's no surprise, then, that blogging is growing at the rate of 25 percent a month. Now insofar as an LCMS is nothing more than a specialized CMS, the same must be true for the online learning content management system industry. Are we close? Yes, we're that close.
