Conduit.com is another form of "pushing of information" that I reviewed for the committee. Conduit.com is great for commercial industries, but I didn't see it as terribly appropriate for the academic community. Upon further examination I realized that I was probably being short sited about it. It's important to approach technology with an open mind.
Conduit is a feature that can be added to the toolbar. Like LibX, it is more amenable to Firefox. I think that most open source tools are designed for Firefox. I learned that this is the case because Firefox itself is open source and Explorer is not. Unfortunately, courseware like WebCT works best with Explorer.
If you want to try Conduit for your learning community it doesn't take long to set up an account, just go to conduit.com. I also made a tutorial for creating an account - http://www.westga.edu/~library/depts/li/conduitnursing/conduitnursing.html
