Nice article basically summarizing Desire2Learn in University Affairs, a Canadian magazine read mostly by university professors and administrators. It covers the original founding of the company by John Baker, its struggles to grow amid the Blackboard lawsuit controversy, and its current success explanding internationally and launching new learning support tools. Disclaimer: I helped build some of those tools in NRC's three-year Synergic3 project with Desire2Learn. I collaborated with D2Land others hosting the recent CFHE12 MOOC, which is mentioned in the story. I am also quoted a few times in the article.
