So, we accomplished a lot this week (especially on our soon-to-be unveiled social media strategy). One item that we can share is an observation that there are really a lot of useless and bizarre widgets in the social nets! We were mildly astonished to note a widget company (RockYou!) raised $35 million in venture capital today. Their “killer” widget is a flash slideshow with pop music playing in the background.
We think we’re doing something a little more valuable than that, and can’t wait to roll out some social features that help deliver interactive and exciting learning. The official announcement is just a few weeks away.
And in other news… we’ve really nailed the question library tool. Seriously, it's a great feature that will make building exams so much easier. As an added bonus, Haiku teachers can now seamlessly import Blackboard questions. Look for this update in the next couple of weeks.
