From the Paper:

"One reason why it should be preferred is because of the large community of users Blackboard has managed to attract over the years. According to College Technology Review 2002, 12 million people in more than 2,000 institutions in 35 countries are using Blackboard products. This means that a member of this community, the students and educators will be able to stay in contact with all these people. Apart from that, Blackboard also encourages its members to collaborate and communicate with each other through various means such as email lists, user groups and conference that are sponsored by Blackboard."
