I'm not sure if you've seen <a href="http://michaelhanley.ie/elearningcurve/a-toolkit-to-develop-e-learning-in-an-open-xml-environment/2009/10/06/" rel="nofollow">this post</a>, but Wink (and another suite of OSS tools called <a href="http://www.kaltura.org/ " rel="nofollow">Kaltura</a>) is on my "master list" of apps and technologies to cover in this series on OSS and free-to-use e-learning applications. Of course, my list isn't exhaustive; it's comprised of programs I've used - and importantly - of suggestions from contributors. While I can't guarantee I'll feature it, I certainly research every suggestion people make, and if it's a good fit I'm happy to share my views on it with the wider community. So if you've any ideas, let me know! I hope you continue to enjoy the blog - and don't forget, this is the Read/Write Web: it's all about interaction and collaboration.

The series on OS is just what I needed for a presentation I'm working on at the moment. I really like Wink but, unfortunately, it is freeware and not open source. I had to double check because I could not find the source code so I could tweak it a bit. Despite that, it is probably one of the better OS tools for tutorials and screencasting. Christy and I even discussed how to use it as a (very limited) simulations tool to replace Captivate. Please keep the OS posts coming! There are incredibly useful.

There is no single "magic" tool that does everything. It will be really helpful to have a list of free tools. My preference would be to also have a third category in there that has tools that cost $. It's great to have a lay of the land of all tools. I can probably help with that more than with the free tools. Also, Cammy Bean has a pretty cool tool overview here: http://learningvisions.blogspot.com/2009/09/elearning-authoring-tools-review-help.html Best, Bryan Michael-
