is the classic question of point-solutions vs. suites. I can understand this to a degree today given the lack of standards around things like identity, but it seems pretty clear that the path is towards suites. One of the more interesting back-stories in Blended Learning / eLearning 2.0 This is also coming out in the authoring world.

Q : Do you feel Linkedin is best suited for a certain age group ? Q : We use a Virtual Book Club to share ideas and solve problems. What are your thoughts? Love the idea. Q : How about calling it micro crowdsourcing ? I like the term. Not 100% sold. I'm going to guess that it skews older. Certainly older than Facebook.

You need to review all the variables (business objectives, cultural starting place, environment in which learning will predominantly take place, mix of media most suited to content, time available amongst learner base, performance change required etc etc ). If you are interested in designing a learning experience, then no one metric fits.
