Its a great system, but it is complex and doesn’t do a great job of differentiating what content type does what. Keep us posted on the progress … great project to get rolling. I am also curious as to your adoption rates and what you’re doing to drive people to the space. I think its going to be really interesting to see how/if people use these spaces for supporting their courses. We use the ANGEL LMS at PSU and people (in general) use it only because its there … I am hoping a solid alternative to collaborative software will impact our classrooms. So many great research angles here, D’Arcy. Good stuff!

I did decide to turn off a bunch of node-type modules, including Story, Forum, etc… At the moment, I have blog, book, poll, and organic group as “content” types. I’ve got a few other modules installed for providing additional info, but tried to at least initially limit the content types.

As soon as I stabilize the setup a bit, I’ll write something up listing the modules I’m using.

I downloaded and installed it on my machine. The only thing I had to do was point it to my weblog (one of them), remember my username and password (not an easy thing, actually…) and it found all of the weblogs I am subscribed to as an author on our MT server. Pretty cool.

I was just saying last week that I wanted a better HTML editor for the weblogs… and there I now have it.

Neat…

It has SPELLCHECK!!! Whoo-hoo…
