Another example is wikis. These allow learners to add and edit information on a document, sometimes without needing to register as you do with blogs. Applying the power of wikis to a learning system grants ample potential to the learning space, in the shape of the fostering of communication and collaboration, as well as by introducing additional outside information (links, videos, photographs) through the wiki (or blog).

These social software tools have the capacity to transform traditional the learning system into something greater and grander, and to magnify the potential of alternative learning systems too.  These tools intensify inspiration, cutting through time and space to permit the emergence of ideas faster and easier.
