I see a lot with blogs and wikis, but less with some of the other web 2.0 technologies (i.e. pageflakes, interactive visualization tools, video). How would you say these uses measure up to the research you're doing with the eLearning guild?
I think what's great about this list is that the key words are to do with connections and dialogue, collaboration, sharing and exchange, not about one way learning from the top down. It seems that a lot of these initiatives are at grassroots level, and are examples of a need to exchange ideas that drives the desire to adopt a particular web 2 tool or approach, the kind of small scale bottom up process that in my opinion is far more likely to succeed than any imperatives imposed from on high that demand that an organisation adopts a technology just because everyone else is doing it. identify the need in your team, and then find the right tool to resolve it - whether a wiki for collaboration, a blog for information, opinion or reflection, or a podcast for getting out the message. But the organsiation needs to support these possibliites by making an open process for setting them up - making access to servers and installing the relevant software eg wikis or blogging
so that the staff can easily and quickly pick up the right tool with the right support when they need it. It seems that establishments like the jordan schools district T4 program - transforming teaching through technology (see- http://t4.jordan.k12.ut.us/t4/component/option,com_frontpage/Itemid,1/)
for example is the right way to go - providing a set of tools and guidance on how to deploy them - and then letting the people at the coal face decide which is most relevant to their needs.
Tony, How well did this presentation go over at the conference?
From my perspective as a student right now (and VERY green when it comes to business training), the content seems pretty obvious. However, it seems that there is a big cultural hurtle in taking advantage of eLearning 2.0 tools.
For me, web 2.0 tends to be very democratic and bottom-up, which could contrast sharply with traditional top-down management.
Its a rather complex issue.

It is a great list of eLearning 2.0 tools
I'm a developer and both myself and collegues are fed up with VLE's that are overbloated with too much stuff, especially when it comes to primary learning.
So here's our pimary learning VLE that comes with content and uses web2.0 technology, multi language support, SEN support etc, plain and simple. See video captures...

You might want to show this in your presentation to show how an online virtual learning environment should look to primary kids.. colourful, fun, animated and not just another bad re-hash of moodle or some other VLE that wasn't designed for kids and just isn't nice to use.
