Much edublog activity noted by Stephen Downes here: http://www.downes.ca/blackboard_patent.htm (and in my own small way, here: http://my-world.typepad.com/rworld/2006/08/bad_day_at_blac.html). We (I think I can speak for more than just myself) are very concerned about the impact of Bb’s action on innovation and academic freedom. Tim Stahmer makes the point that “these events creat[e] the potential for a relatively small number of companies, with government blessing, to control the web.” (http://www.assortedstuff.com/?p=1596)
