My point is that these online resources can be helpful to students because it provides an additional source of knowledge for them. If they don't understand something they've read in a textbook or listened to in class, they can try LearnHub or skooGo. Also, these resources are intended for the best market: youth. They spend hours online, but now they may be prompted to use the Net more productively to learn stuff that's relevant and useful to their studies. As for Socrato's future plans, you should probably ask Michael Oates :) @ Michael: Thanks for the comment, and the correction :) Will keep you posted on any feedback.

None of them are actually helpful. Collaboration for the sake of it accomplishes nothing. Socrato is going to do what, put ads everywhere? It’s nice to read about all of them but it’s all so fluffy.

I also enjoyed your other reviews. One correction I have is that we currently have no plans to make it a pay-to-use service. Keep up the good work and let me know if your younger siblings have any feedback. We're always interested in improving the site. Thank you for taking a look at Socrato.
