Here are the top 100 netcentric learning tools as compiled by Jane Hart, social learning consultant and all around bright light.

Jane surveyed 278 top learning professionals to generate this list, so a good deal of thought and consensus has gone into it. Some of these tools you already know about. Some you don't.

And while you're at it, check out Idea Champions' Free the Genie (which...um...er...uh... didn't quite make the list this year).

Tom Peters once said that unless 20% of a company's workforce was under the age of 20, they didn't have a chance.

Their creativity and resourcefulness blow my mind. See the image above? Photoshopped by Jesse, my son. If you have a photo or illustration that needs to be tweaked, repaired, refined, improved, or manipulated in any way, he's your guy. Forget about outsourcing to a 30-year old from Mumbai. How about a 15-year old from Woodstock? Faster, cheaper, and cooler.
