Wikinomics: Ch 10 Review

Just as the book talked about the perfect storm hitting the business environment, I feel my own perfect storm brewing. Preparing for this class, reading Wikinomics, taking an online eLearning design course and getting involved in a number of eLearning projects have all come together to create an excitement in me that I can't explain. I embrace this new way of thinking and communicating, and it is giving a home to the passion I have for learning.

I am currently involved in a project to reinvent the ASTD Iowa web site. We have made a lot of progress, but we are entering the creative phase. The idea of collaboration has made its way into our design, and I am thrilled to see where it takes us. Our newest member to the redesign team, Cindi Adams, set us on a course that has infused new life into our thoughts as to where we can go. The idea is simple, but so powerful. Let the web site tell our story and be a place of collaboration, not just information. There are so many possibilities, if we just allow ourselves to grab hold of them.
