I do like Moodle and use it currently. However, there is definitely a learning curve and administrative duties to deal with. Also, and I realize this is a silly reason to dislike it, it looks clunky. That is unless you add a different theme and…"

Begonya Folch Martínez said… - Hello Mark,
Thanks for your work; I can learn a lot from your sites.
I want to ask you the link of a 2.0 tool that I can not remember, and I think I've seen on your sites, may be. It's a virtual map of the world and the countries grow up or down depending on the number of the thing you're looking for, for example religion, education under 12, children without school... and so.
Thak you very much for your attention.
Best regards,
Begonya Folch
