They say: "We have email, we have message boards, why reinvent the wheel?" If I can show them how the tools have made info sharing easier, then they get it. The problem then becomes that the benefit the new improved tools bring is that they give us the ability to share and change and learn together. How can you share if hardly anyone is using those new tools? Jeff, I see them, but I see just as many who don’t see the need for new tools.

Can't it be !here !now? And why are you such a geek? :) why does it have to be now !here for training too? Can’t it be !here !now?

And why are you such a geek? :)

The ? is: where does 2.0 fit in this model? For education, I'd say (! now, ! here): for training, it's more like (now, ! here). Makes a difference.
