The Web never sleeps. If we search for online learning in Google, we get more than 50 million hits. Among the top few returns among those millions is a blog (web-log) that is published in a tiny town in the cornfields of Illinois. The Online Learning Upate has been published continuously since 2000.
A look at the location of those visiting the blog on the web over the past day:

And, yet the number of those visiting the blog directly is dwarfed by those visiting via RSS:

Micro-blogging is an emerging tool - you can tweet with twitter! Reviews of 10 tools.
Blogs are used by many to deliver learning materials. I am researching the use of RSS to continue to deliver learning materials to students after they complete the course, after they graduate; facilitating the professor-student relationship for years after the semester has ended.
