I completely agreed with him, but added that we could go farther, and that 'Just for Me' learning is now also achievable, through a number of emerging trends in learning and development. Now employees can be kept up to date and knowledgeable, and their skills developed personally, through the appropriate application of networked technologies.

How can we for example describe learning activities such as blogging, social networking, crowd sourced learning, or user generated content such as Wikipedia and YouTube using older theories? Or can they work together with the new theories to provide us with a basis to understand what is happening. I will be interested in your views.
