Discussions and reflections part-way through...

If nothing else, managing to do this program or not has generated lots of discussion in our team. In particular we have come across problems with multiple people using the same computer, which has resulted in all the posts going to one blog! Perhaps a shared blog would have been a better idea.

Pretty much all of these technologies are new to the team, so it is a steep learning curve, and takes much longer than we had anticipated. I think this has disheartened some people, and put them off getting to the really fun bits of the program.

However we have had some interesting discussions on some of the technologies, and how they could be applied in the workplace. We definately see a use for Wikis, RSS feeds, and blogs. I have also seen some posts on other blogs about using the image generators for Powerpoint presentations, which would certainly take them to another level. I can see the potential for this, and probably Uni students are already tapping into this resource.
