		<title>Managing the consequences</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some watch words that have been presented with Capella’s strategic objective and focus areas for 2009 are “fast, flexible and bold.” These words refer to us being quick to respond to market changes and able to take bold steps in new directions when needed. While I see the competitive advantage, it’s a concept that makes [...]]]></description>

		<title>2008 is the new 1999</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had a nice exchange recently with Jim, our web strategies supervisor, about the UI of many web 2.0 sites.  He had noted that so many web 2.0 sites have ugly, amateurish-looking user interfaces, which got me to thinking about a cycle that goes like this:
First (early 1990s): techies got their hands on tools, technology [...]]]></description>

		<title>Web 2.0 in a corporate world</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Frequent concerns that people express about using blogs, wikis and other Web 2.0 technology in a corporate environment revolve around what&#8217;s appropriate and what isn&#8217;t. Certainly there are things that pretty much everyone would agree don&#8217;t reflect professional behavior, but what about that whole swath of gray area that seems almost as big as the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pre-conference expectations</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of us from NextGen &#8212; including me &#8212; are attending the O&#8217;Reilly Web 2.0 expo in San Francisco this week.  Before I head out, I thought I&#8217;d jot down a couple things I&#8217;m hoping to get from the conference.
First, I want to better establish a shared definition of Web 2.0 that we&#8217;ll [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brownbags and not blog posts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As we&#8217;re currently in the midst of a free thinking Friday &#8211; I pose the following question.  Why brownbags and not blog posts?
Often, either free-standing or as part of departmental meetings, we have brownbag sessions as a way to communicate projects, report results, or other internal news and updates of note.  Similarly, there [...]]]></description>

		<title>SPLASH and the University of Sussex</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Based upon some conversations I&#8217;ve been listening to on Twitter, I just came across the SPLASH project (Student Personal Learning And Social Homepages) at the University of Sussex.
As we are currently evaluating some of the same back-end software, this write up is not just a recommended read, but of particular interest to see the language [...]]]></description>

		<title>Web Principles as credo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Currently we&#8217;ve been discussing the inherent value of adopting web principles as guiding direction for our internal teams.  As one of the first posts on this blog, Jason worked toward a definition of the Content Management and Online Colaboration team.
Building on this, we&#8217;ve been on the lookout for other groups&#8217; Web Principles to help [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rollin&#8217; with the top down</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I read a great piece the other day by Kevin Kelly at &#8220;The Technium.&#8221;  Read it here:
http://www.kk.org/thetechnium/archives/2008/02/the_bottom_is_n.php
Kelly&#8217;s one of the originators of Wired magazine, and he&#8217;s written a lot about the hive mind, the wisdom of crowds, the whole idea that one route to excellence is to empower the people and to watch what emerges.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Found on O&#8217;Reilly Radar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a good post at O&#8217;Reilly radar (http://radar.oreilly.com/) today:
The piece is a thoughtful examination of how one content producer &#8212; Reuters &#8212; envisions how the future of the web (specifically, the semantic web) will affect its own directions.  It&#8217;s not hard to see parallels to Capella here: like Reuters, we are producing &#8220;professional data,&#8221; we provide [...]]]></description>

		<title>Transformers: more than meets the eye</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some good discussions this week among the CMOC team (the fightin&#8217; Sea Moccasins of CMOC, I like to call us) about what a transformed learner iGuide might look like. This is a fun part of any project like this: we get to open our minds, talk about possbilities, brainstorm new ways of doing things.  Of [...]]]></description>
