Mzinga is the result of a merger between KnowledgePlanet and Shared Insights at the end of 2007. My more recent contact at Mzinga is Dave Wilkins. I spoke with Dave via email about what Mzinga is doing with social media. Q: What social media tools is Mzinga incorporating into their LMS?

This is not so of a new generation of social networking technology, which is being used to provide software services under trading names such as Ning, CollectiveX, Sossoon, Hiitch, Huddle, Mzinga, British Telecom's Workspace (project management), Clearspace, and even Microsoft's Sharepoint. Informal learning - the next big thing?

Mzinga is clearly targeted at the learning space, being integrated with an LMS. Yet, for a learning group, Mzinga’s integration of formal and informal learning is also plausible. Tags: social. We were prompted to visit Blue Kiwi , which is probably the leading European social media platform.

The need for informal learning continues to grow and likewise the ability to easily access it or contribute to it will improve. Successful LMS’s will be modeled after the way people are sharing and accessing information today. Tags: Social Media LMS Brandon Hall kick-ass. Thanks to Sue, from a fellow upstate New Yorker!

LMSs control, track and report on formal learning initiatives while a social media platform enables rather than controls informal learning. A: Jeff Whitney - It just makes sense to offer a social media platform to support the 80% of learning that occurs informally. Each has very different objectives. Thanks Jeff!

To stay relevant, George believes training vendors should do two things: Stop talking “learning” and start talking “capacity” and “execution” like the rest of the C-suite. Augment their systems with components that provide opportunities for people to interact in social systems for informal learning. Learn more about Dawn here.
