Editor’s note: L&D talks about data and the importance of the insights we can generate from it. But how far do we – or should we – go in collecting data from employees? New tools are allowing employers to collect data on employees at a granular level. Should we be concerned?

Editor’s note: Microsoft, who own LinkedIn, look like they are turning the screw on corporate learning. They now have a suite of productivity tools and are turning LinkedIn into a more open learning platform. As a learning platform, LinkedIn looks very useful for employees as it will provide you with options based on your skills and experience. By opening up the platform to other content providers, its offer becomes more compelling. Definitely a vendor worth keeping an eye on.

Editor’s note: It’s interesting to see the apps that Microsoft is offering through Office 365. StaffHub looks very interesting, not only as a communications device for frontline staff who don’t have access to a computer but also as a way for teams to share information relevant to the priorities of their schedule.

Editor’s note: Interesting to see how Yammer is developing with this news of the integration of social ‘authority’ tool Klout into the platform. Will Tin Can feature in further developments ie a score based on what you have read/attended/shared?

Editor’s note: Insights into how a tech company with its own collaboration tool – Sharepoint – is using its new collaboration tool – Yammer. To quote: ‘Those teams that are more focused on the conversations lean toward Yammer groups. Increasingly, we are providing options of embedding Yammer feeds into SharePoint sites for people that want a mixture of the two.’
