The objective of an e-Learning authoring tool is the creation of an accessible and reusable pedagogical content that is conforms to the existing e-Learning standards. We argue that this objective can be ex-tended when the learning content is created on a multimodal SaaS authoring and publishing platform with an XML-based language for content and metadata description to satisfy instructional designers for a responsive interactivity coupled with rich and informative substance. This position paper presents a Cloud-services based solution for building a virtual and personal learning environment that combines a wide range of technology and tools for learning-content mash-up authoring and diffusion. The proposed service-based framework is intended to support lifelong learning content creation and to enable mash-up of various learning services and applications by adapting learning objects on desktop and small handheld devices
