Elgg is an open source “learning landscape plaftform. It supports a social constructionist approach to eportfolios where learners link their ideas and interests with others’ as they evolve.
You can tag your interests and it shows you who else has the same interests. You can create individual and group blogs. Everything is linked by tags. Everything speaks RSS.
Strangely, there is no link to “home”, even on the logo at the top left.
[Added:] Is “eLearning” software becoming generic social software? This makes sense to me because we’ve built GroupServer to be a generic collaboration server. Even thought the original client for it is an eLearning provider, it has met their needs from the start.
Content is content, conversations are conversations. Groups and people are what they are.
