RSS explained

Winer points to a piece by Paul Stacey which explains the power of RSS.  There are some really good links which help explain "what is under the hood" regarding RSS.  Especially useful is a Stephen Downes piece entitled "RSS for Educational Designers".

[Jim Flowers: Blogs and Education]

One more piece in the movement that is shaping up. No name for it yet; I've seen "viral learning", "web of ideas", and any number of others lately. It's a different model than the traditional U.S. "ad hoc" industrial-training approach. More community-based and constructivist than individual and collaborative. Interesting -- where are we going?
