It's about content. Not just providing good content on your site but pushing good content and giving users the ability to share good content. I think you are right on the ball here.

I've been ranting for some time now about the need to separate "content from container" (first rant <a href="http://intermedia.typepad.com/intermedia/2006/12/content_vs_cont.html" rel="nofollow">here in 2006</a>, followed by smaller rants over the course of the next few years). To stay relevant, we're going to have to make our content available quickly in a variety of formats and then just let go. People want to pick the container, be it our own website, newsletter, facebook page, rss feed, etc. so we all need to spend more time developing good content and making it easily available and portable. As for control, that ship left the yard a while ago. Interesting post.

I am struck by the need to be more open and for us to understand that control does not really equal quality across the board. I don't spend a ton of time in the public web design space, but I am seeing huge parallels between this and the creation of learning content. I've been exploring that quite a bit recently and think the two are really connected. At any rate, thought I'd comment. Take care and would love to hear your thoughts on a <a href="http://camplesegroup.com/blog/?p=922" rel="nofollow">similar piece</a> I wrote.
