The LMSPodcast series consists of interviews with people who use learning management systems. It primarily focuses on the Blackboard learning management system, but other systems are also covered. And most of the discussion is not specific to any one learning management system.

LMS 59 Blackboard Sync

Blackboard Sync allows Facebook users to check their Blackboard sites and see what new things have been posted. It is part of the Blackboard Beyond initiative. In the future they will be extending this capability to the iPhone and other platforms. There are a number of ways to configure the system in order to provide whatever protection you wish for login credentials.
