I imagine schools using voice messaging to keep parents involved in the child's education - not everyone has access to the Internet! I envision rural schools using distance learning to access "live" content they can't provide locally. I'm working on other projects that are very good for education, but outside the realm of the Internet. Steve Kohn notes.skohn@nynex.com
