In our travels, we collect all sorts of good things. This section groups what we've found and learned into categories we suspect you'll come back again and again over time. The web is long on information but few sites group them into comprehensive lists of ALL (or mostly all even) of anything. Some of of groups aim for that comprehensiveness. Others are just interesting and based on what we've found. This section compliments the reading and themes section (because those are also groupings of things we've found) but this section focuses specifically on like-items based on category. Organizations for Learning & Training Professionals has been one of the most popular parts of Marcia's FAQs for years. We've moved them into this resource section and updated them with several new online learning groups to provide as thorough a list as possible. We separate them out into US-based organizations and non-US based organizations and recently added local organizations.
Terms is our glossary on learning and knowledge-related terms. We also list to acronyms, dictionaries, and encyclopedias.
Websites contain lists mega-sites leading to many more learning links.
Distribution and email lists provides a long list of email lists you may want to join to correspond with others interested in learning, HR, and KM themes. There is also information on etiquette and instructions on how to join a distribution list. Usenet newsgroups may not be as popular as they were in years past, but there are still some good lists you might want to know about.
People are not necessarily resources, but we couldn't find the exact right spot to introduce you to some of our favorite thinkers and doers. This is currently a small list but we have many more people to add. So far we introduce you to Doug Engelbart, Dee Hock, the late Michael Dertouzos, and Doug McBride.
Companies we're particularly fond of because when we've had a good experience with them as employees, customers, or business partners. Besides, it's our small way of thanking them for a job well done or a particularly good experience. This is by no means a list of all companies we've enjoyed working with, but it's a start!
