Facebook is the New Outlook

Last week Techcrunch posted a story on the troubles of Microsoft in maintaining it's market position under the headline, "Facebook is the New Outlook". Granted, the Techcrunch article is a lot more about Microsoft, taking Facebook's status as the dominant communication platform among younger online users. This was something our colleagues over that The Daily Wenzel already speculated about.

Why is this important to educators? If Facebook is the new Outlook, where is your District positioned if it still bans student email?
