Now is a very ripe time for disruptive innovation in the e-learning space. This is especially true as the raw stuff of learning - think video lectures, wikis, forums - is increasingly accessible for free, while college tuition rates keep rising.

The preeminent scholar in the field of disruptive innovation has actually just published a book specifically about education: http://www.amazon.com/Disrupting-Class-Disruptive-Innovation-Change/dp/0071592067 http://www.amazon.com/Disrupting-Class-Disruptive-Innovation... I've been reading it in the last few days and publishing some of my favorite passages to my blog: http://bit.ly/mad82 http://bit.ly/mad82
