Tonight we’ve unveiled the Learnalot portal and opened the discussion forum for registrations.

The portal isn’t yet taking subscribers as there’s still some work to do on the resources themselves, but with the portal now completed it made sense to unveil it for three important reasons:

1. It gives people who are interested in what we’re doing (and Google Analytics shows there’s a fair few of you out there!) an opportunity to take a look and to get excited about what’s coming.
2. It allows people to register for the newsletter and be kept up to date with resource progress and more importantly, the portal’s launch.
3. Finally, it allows the search engines to start indexing the site so that when we do launch, potential users will be able to find us.

Registrations on the forums are welcome to all those who are interested in the portal or who wish to ask questions or provide feedback. Naturally, the portal will also serve as a support forum when we launch.

We’ve put together a behind the scenes blog for Learnalot at http://blog.learnalot.co.uk, on which we’ll be posting related news, announcements and resource previews on a pretty regular basis.

The blog has only just been set up, but we’ll be adding content to it regularly so should have some interesting content on there soon.

We’ve also set up a Facebook page and a Twitter account to make it easier for people to discuss the portal, its resources and to contribute their ideas both while the service is in development and when it goes live.
