The contents of this manifesto should need to be repeated, but a scan of the web shows that companies (and educational institutions, and governments) continue to fail to follow its sage advice. In a nutshell: remove the fancy animations, the corporate advertising, and the press release talk, and make your company's people the focus of your website. And you know - exactly the same advice applies to online learning. Administrators should pay special attention to page 17 - the website swindle. Via Jay Cross, who also links to an important item by George Lakoff cited here a few months ago on the concept of framing.
