Congrats on the GHEC Ning network

Howdy yall. I'm glad to see that the GHEC is still going. Hooray Chris. This is a great idea. How can we get more folks aboard? It's a great asset.

FYI, Streaming Media Magazine just published an entire issue on Best Practices in Online Learning. It is part of their Innovation Series. VBrick, Akamai, Ignite, Sonic Foundry and others have case studies.
