Découvrez LA méthode pour apprendre une langue avec ONLINE TRAINERS Blackboard buys Moodlerooms...And no, this isn't an early April Fools My first reaction when I saw this news today was something along the lines of, "Wait, what? lolz! Gotta retweet that one!" Then, of course, I realized that it was true. Blackboard announced the acquisition of both Moodlerooms and Netspot today, along with the creation of a new "Open Source Services Group", headed by none other than Charles Severance, founding Chief Architect of the Sakai Project.
