Web 2.0 for school

Solution Watch has part 3 of the series on Back to School with the Class of Web 2.0. Part 1 had a huge list and review of Web 2.0 sites which could be used by students and teachers. One question which people have asked already is how will course management systems like Blackboard keep up with the tools available for free on these Web 2.0 sites and why will students want to use course management systems at all? I think the answer to part of that is that very few of the CMS are likely to be on top of the latest things possible. They change very slowly. Considering all the tools out there, if you could incorporate the functionality of the ones you want to use into one website to keep things organized, you could build your own CMS.
