Groove: Ten Good Reasons Not To Buy. I like Groove as a learning platform...and as I've stated before, it's the best experience I've had to date with a community/collaboration suite. Still, this article nails it - Groove is complex, bandwidth intensive, and some features (voip, text chat) need work. With that said, I'll still continue to use Groove. It has weaknesses...but it's currently largely in a field by itself. (I'm working with Convea now...and it seems to be a good replacement...). It's so important that the tools we use to collaborate are simple and easy to use. The "early majority" has not yet hit the collaborative tools scene. Hopefully things will be more blog/RSS-like by then...:)
