Here's an interesting perspective, especially with all the blog talk about informal learning /Web 2.0/e-Learning 2.o.; Why We Need More Standards
"But the long tail argument probably doesn’t even go far enough. I would argue that even many of the “core” LMS applications, properly designed, really should be situated software, meaning that the applications should be tailored to the needs of the individuals rather than created one-size-fits-all."
First of all, Michael Feldstein makes this comment from the context of academic e-Learning and not corporate training. Here at SyberWorks, that is precisely what we do with our learning management system, but in a corporate training context, i.e., we design our system to what our customer needs.
He also makes come comments about LMS's being used as discussion boards, well, maybe in academia, but NOT with the corporate customers with which we work. Our customers have very difficult learning management problems they need solved.
