Elearning Moving Forward
Adobe consolidates the products needed to make great elearning and rapid elearning, whether by furthering empowering a dedicated training professional or enabling a knowledge worker. This includes the technologies for capturing, generating, editing, reviewing, and deploying media assets, sophisticated traditional deep elearning, and best-of-breed rapid elearning. One stop shopping for the phrase I appropriated back in 2001, "weapons of mass instruction".
I am leaving Adobe to work as an independent elearning consultant. I look forward to working with the same great people (and new folks too), the same great products (and some new ones too), but in a different capacity.
Cheers to Silke Fleischer, who also blogs here, and all the other under-recognized internal champions of elearning who will continue to move elearning forward from inside Adobe.

Good luck in your consulting. I've enjoyed reading your blog for some time now. Will you be changing your weblog address (I would assume you'd have to)?

Thanks for the feedback Scott. I'm hoping Silke will continue to blog here.
I plan to resurrect my own blog at http://mobilemind.net once I've officially moved out of Adobe.

You will be missed Tom! I really appreciate all the eLearning projects and events you have championed at Macromedia. Macromedia without you is going to be a little odd. I only hope some else can bring the same skill and enthusiasm to eLearning at Adobe.
Please email me to keep in touch.
Cheers,
Ed

I'm not sure of the netiquette in this situation, so hopefully it is acceptable to post my new blogging home- http://mobilemind.net/
