As the Nationwide insurance commercials taunt «life comes at you fast», it’s time for librarians to jump into the knowledge pool of Web 2.0 technologies and discover how these tools are changing the way many library users communicate, collaborate and receive information. Helene Blowers, Technology Director for the Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County shares insights and best practices around the creation of Learning 2.0, an online self-discovery program designed to encourage staff to explore new technologies (blogs, wikis, podcasts etc.) and reward them for «play.»
Join us for this informative session and then think about adding another resolution to your personal New Year’s list… cause it’s true, life (as well as new technology) does come at you fast!

Belle année 2006 !
Tous nos indicateurs sont demeurés au vert, au vert éclatant même : nombre d’institutions de formation en ligne, nombre de cours offerts, qualité des cours offerts, nombre de fournisseurs, nombre d’utilisateurs, nombre de projets, etc. L’activité générale est foisonnante.
On constate même que plusieurs institutions traditionnelles commencent à intégrer la e-formation dans leurs stratégies de développement; à preuve les institutions qui prennent entente avec d’autres ou créent des antennes locales pour diffuser leurs cours ou encore ces régions rurales qui utilisent la solution e-formation pour garder leurs écoles ouvertes ou retenir les compétences dans leur région.
Du coté des entreprises on observe une utilisation de plus en plus fréquente de la formule e-learning, rapide ou étendue, d’appoint ou de base; sa souplesse et sa précision sont ses qualités les plus appréciées. (leer más…)

The Wall Street Journal Online nos ha dignado con un artículo con Todd Dagres y David Hornik sobre si la web 2.0 es otra burbuja, como las punto com. Os dejo las dos primeras intervenciones
The Wall Street Journal Online invited two technology venture capitalists, who were active in the dot-com days and have invested in the current crop of startups, to debate the topic. Todd Dagres spent nearly a decade at Battery Ventures before starting Spark Capital last year. David Hornik, a partner at August Capital and a former Silicon Valley attorney, writes the popular VentureBlog. Their conversation, carried out over email, is below.
![[Todd Dagres]](https://i0.wp.com/online.wsj.com/public/resources/images/Dagres_Todd_gst12212006163348.jpg){kind=small}
Mr. Dagres begins: Web 2.0 is a bubble for 3 reasons: 1) There is far too much money chasing Web 2.0 deals. Too much money means too many companies getting funded at higher valuations. 2) There are virtually no barriers to entry in Web 2.0 and therefore the ability to develop a unique solution and sustain a competitive advantage is virtually nil. Therefore, it’s difficult for Web 2.0 companies to build long term value. 3) There is very little liquidity in the market for Web 2.0 companies. The Dow was recently at a high and still no liquidity. Without liquidity, Web 2.0 companies must rely on acquisitions to achieve liquidity and this will put a lid on the potential exit options and ultimate valuations of these companies. In short, they will be playing a musical chairs game in which there are far too many players and too few chairs.
There are some similarities between the current «bubble» and the last one that burst in 2000: Lots of incomplete and under-experienced teams, business models based more on eyeballs than cash flow, and a rash of incremental and «me too» deals.
![[David Hornik]](https://i0.wp.com/online.wsj.com/public/resources/images/Hornik_David_gst12212006163348.jpg){kind=small}
Mr. Hornik responds: I do not believe that the existence of too much venture capital money chasing too few interesting ideas constitutes a bubble. The Web 1.0 bubble inflated because the public markets were willing to bet on unproven ideas. Public markets are ill suited to evaluating such risks. On the other hand, the venture capital community exists precisely to take on that risk. While many Web 2.0 companies will fail, they will not likely fail in significantly greater proportions than has been the case with other venture investments historically. So it is hard to imagine how this so-called bubble will over-inflate. Venture capitalists will rationally stop investing in ideas that don’t bear fruit. Those that do bear fruit will gain traction and either be acquired or go public. Those are the traits of a rational market in my mind.

Emergence of open technologies and open-source alternatives makes customizing school software a reality
By Corey Murray, Senior Editor, eSchool News
Aiming to customize their solutions to meet the individual needs of teachers and students, a growing number of school systems are ushering in a new breed of school software that relies on open technologies–whether it’s open-source software on their servers and desktops, or so-called Web 2.0 services available free of charge online. Economics and advancements in technology are fueling this latest trend in school software, proponents of the movement say–but it’s also about customization, and the desire to employ a variety of solutions as users see fit.
December 15, 2006—At the Plano Independent School District in Texas, Associate Superintendent for Technology and Academic Services Jim Hirsch is preparing for the future.
At a time when the internet, once strictly an informational resource, is being transformed into a virtual hub of web-based services and applications–giving users viable alternatives to expensive, proprietary school software applications–Hirsch has been traveling the country, talking to colleagues and painting a picture of what he sees as the next evolution in educational technology.
