This presentation discusses concepts related to networking Moodle installations and identity management. It covers topics like exponential network growth, topologies for connecting Moodle sites, embracing open connections and the abundance of information. Authentication and authorization methods are also addressed. The overall message is about opening up and connecting Moodle sites in a networked "swarm" rather than remaining isolated.

10. The Swarm The abundance of information

11. The Swarm Exponential growth

12. The Swarm Exponential growth Mathematics says the sum value of a network increases as the square of the number of members. In other words, as the number of nodes in a network increases arithmetically, the value of the network increases exponentially. Adding a few more members can dramatically increase the value of the network. Kevin Kelly: (New Rules for a New Economy)
