It's actually my first time using Landing! I've never heard of it until I took this course! lol.... I've however used MOODLE to create an online course for MDDE 604.
Hmm...I think this is an extremely user-friendly application as it provides tutorials, videos and what not especially for first-time users like myself. I Obviously one has to do trial and error sort of thing to know what Landing has to offer.
One thing that I like about Landing is how I can create Photo Albums. Instread of attaching the pictures as files and making it available for download (which definitely is time-consuming for all those invovled), it is quite similar to Facebook, Netlog and other social websites. I had a look at Mahara as well; however, due to technical difficulties I was often not able to login when I wanted to. That is something you don't want to go through. Social websites should be hassle-free, easy to navigate and must most importatnly offer privacy- something Landing offers!:)
