(I was almost trapped by a black hole.) Check out George Siemens' Knowing Knowledge for an alternative viewpoint. George would tell you that knowledge exists not within people but between people.

From my perspective, having spent much time exploring knowledge, I have come to the view that knowledge only exists in people - everything else is an information based representation for the purposes of sharing knowledge. So, when I say knowledge ecosystem it infers people ecosystem and is very personal, because we each operate within our own overlapping ecosystems. But I can understand that it might seem impersonal to you. Since I have never worked in the education / learning field, and if it weren't for the fact that I only recently discovered the relevance of elearning interests to me, learnscapes would not have capture my attention at all!! But, now I appreciate that my interest in knowledge sharing and knowledge creation has significant overlaps (synonymously in some areas) with those of elearning advocates, and that in some areas, it is simply language that is the barrier to appreciating this common interest!

I want to capture the interplay of learners, the co-creation of new knowledge, and the need to nurture what you want to see more of.
