[Xerte] New Technologies

[Dave Burnett]

Gads, that's 3 or 4 Moore's cycles.
Even Nostradamus....
:-)


Apologies Julian if I'm veering off your intended topic, but I'm thinking less of technology and more of technique.
And mobile, as immediately cited by several folks is one of the prime movers behind the technique.

The battle over that vast data pool that Google, Microsoft, etc are engaged in is for one purpose, commerce.
Refining the ability to micro-target consumer preferences is the grail.
And what is a "learning mode" if not a "consumer preference"?

So regardless of the delivery mode, it will be the dynamic, preference based, context oriented assembly of effective *for that individual* content that needs to be sought.

Perhaps SCORM will finally come into it's own, and the prime "technology" will be the one that links "learning mode" to "consumer preference".


My 2 bob on a Friday.
