		<description><![CDATA[A recent study by the Research Information Network1has shown that the take-up of so-called 2.0 tools is still low in academic and research communities with 13% of respondents using tools frequently (once per week or more), 45% using them occasionally and 39% using them at all. Major barriers to adoption has been reported to be a lack of clarity as to what the benefits might be, as well as perceptions and concerns regarding quality and trust. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thinkingknowledge.wordpress.com&amp;blog=3898952&amp;post=474&amp;subd=thinkingknowledge&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
