Education 2.0?
This offering is clearly a harbinger of the Web 2.0 education space. While it may not attract the big guns in online education, it will attract masses of independents and in house providers, and since it is mostly financed by Google ads, the numbers are what matters. If Nuvvo pulls this off, like they appear to be poised to, they are a likely acquisition target as the big boys (Google, Yahoo, Microsoft) fall all over themselves to acquire addition Web 2.0 services.
I ran through the demo to see enough of their implementation of Ajax technology to be suitably impressed. This is only the tip of the ice-burg as more and more richer functionality is added. Lots of possibilities for applications within Law firms. Although attorneys might be too busy to jump in and create practice management courses, their eager computer literate support staff will take to this stuff like they have to Excel, Word & Access.
