The blogosphere has been very active covering the exciting new CourseFeed application. Below are a few samples of recent blog posts on CourseFeed:
“I think this application has serious potential and when I speak of Facebook’s golden application, this could very well be it.” – Nick O'Neill, AllFacebook.com
“Merry Christmas! Happy Birthday! No. Wrong holidays… Oh, that's right – Happy CourseFeed Day! What is CourseFeed, you ask? Well, it's one of the first Facebook applications that I find exceptionally useful in an academic environment.” – Bridget , Beyond the Reference Desk
“No verbose opening on this one folks - today Stub is bringing you news. And this is big. I'm talking Penn State beats Ohio State big.... There is a new app on the street known as CourseFeed.” – Chris Stubbs, The Voices in My Head
The application is connected directly with your actual Blackboard account at school, so there’s not much extra work you need to do, like re-entering data for use on Facebook.
