Wikispaces has released the ref tag, so now wikis, in addition to hyperlinking, may include references. We're still working through our class standards, and I"ve got a page on our school wiki that I will update for the students. We would love some feedback from the experts out there because some of these items are our best interpretation of wiki-fying MLA. We integrated this into some of our current projects today. Note: These projects are ...

After my post about moving to a new school and having a Mac for the first time in 10+ years, I received more suggestions of software that I needed then I ever thought I would. I’m still going through the list and of course installing and uninstalling software as I try things out and find what I really need. I was asked if I would create a wiki to keep track of all the cool ...

Last week, I wrote about BusinessWeek’s new Business Exchange. It’s a site the magazine’s publishers are hoping will engage - and build - its audience by giving them the ability to read, save, and add news items from around the web. As of this week, the site is now in Beta, and you can register and try it out yourself. While you’re at it, check out Enterprise Wikis (35 news and 75 blog items) and ...

At some point in the last year or so I began noticing a new buzz word in business periodicals and other places. Web 2.0What's that all about, I wondered. The history of the human race seems to involve people naming things, from Adam on down to the present day. Planets, technologies, species of plants and viruses of all kinds began as unnamed entities at one time. The lands we inhabit had no maps or names. ...

Let’s say that you’re a world class CEO. Your company is growing super fast. Your employees are brilliant. Your profits are soaring. The problem: What if the company is reliant on your existence? Even worse, what if you left the company for whatever reason? Your company and its employees are in for major chaos. The solution is quite simple in theory. Instead of micro-managing employees, you systematize every job process. All job roles in your ...

I’m having a ball with social media out in the consumer web. Blogging, FriendFeed, Twitter, Facebook. I’m learning so much about technology, new companies and people’s attitudes regarding Web 2.0. Along the way, some collaboration and a new job actually happened out of all this fun. Now why can’t we see some of these same effects in the place where most of us spend a third of our day? We’re seeing live implementations of social ...

Svårare än så här behöver det inte vara. En wiki ska du inte använda för att uppfinna hjulet utan för att göra vardagen enklare. Wikipedia came onto the scene in 2001 and quickly demonstrated how powerful and far-reaching collaborative content can be. Since then, wikis have proven to be valuable tools for many websites. Yet, few companies are using them to their full potential. Project Management Customer/Client Collaboration Documentation Online Community Policies, FAQ, Guidelines and ...

Not long ago, I took advantage of a nifty WordPress plugin to enable XML sitemaps for the blog. For those who’ve never heard of XML sitemaps (I hadn’t for quite a while), they are little XML files in a specific format that give search engines like Google hints on how to index your site. They don’t necessarily improve your search rankings per se, but they help the search engine better decide what to index, when ...

Sometime this month, I crossed an invisible line that marks my using Citrix as my primary (and quite often, sole) work environment for two and a half years in a row. Which is interesting in many ways, and not just because it’s (in my view) a major productivity driver and cost saver for my company. Yes, I have become free of the hassle of managing my own desktop, can switch machines at a moment’s notice, ...
