Virtual Classroom

Sorry I have been gone for a while. I went to Greece and Turkey on vacation. It was an amazing trip. It gave me an entirely new perspective. I highly recommend it. I really didn't deal with the technical side of life. But I am back.
So, lets talk about virtual learning space. Moodle provides a free virtual classroom space. There are over 678,000 registered users all over the world. Have you ever used Moodle? I have used Blackboard and it is very understandable and usable. Moddle is free. I was wondering if anyone out there sees a need or desire for a personal learning space or is it only of value for long distance learning. Would you be more likely to use a virtual learning space, a blog or a wiki?
