===Recent Changes Camp Montreal, [http://www.rocococamp.info/ RoCoCoCamp.info]===
''29-May-2007''


=== [[RecentChanges.info/Yell threatens to shut down Yellowikis|Yell threatens to shut down Yellowikis]] ===
RecentChangesCamp Montreal, aptly named RoCoCo - a [[wiki]] style bar camp brought together some amazing minds from the [[WhatIsWiki|wiki]] world. An unconference in style, a physical representation of wiki - these wiki camps let [[:Category:Wiki people|people]] decide the agenda and purpose of why they are there.


''05-Jul-2006''
Participants at RoCoCo spanned from the West Coast of [[:Category:North America|North America]] to [[:Category:Europe|Europe]].


From [[Wikinews]] comes thin story:
<small>[http://recentchanges.info/ ...read more]</small>
: [[Wikipedia:Yell|Yell]], the worlds biggest yellow pages publisher, today threatened to shut down [[Yellowikis]], the wiki based yellow pages directory.
: They accused Yellowikis co-founders Paul Youlten and Rosa Blaus (his 15 year-old daughter) of "misrepresentation", "passing off" and suggested that using the name Yellowikis could "constitute an 'instrument of fraud'"


: Yell are demanding that Paul and Rosa Close down the website, transfer the domain names to Yell and agree to pay damages to Yell for loss of profits. (Yell made $2.4bn in 2005, Yellowikis made a loss of $500 which was used to print t-shirts promoting Yellowikis at the Wikimania conference in Frankfurt)

A bit about where we've [[WikiIndex:History|come from]] and where [http://2007.recentchangescamp.org/Wiki_Index we're going] is in order.


=== [http://recentchanges.info/?p=88 Collaboration at work] ===
The bottom line is that [[WikiIndex]] needs your help.  The founders and [[:Category:Active contributors to this wiki|current volunteers]] are pretty busy with other topics, including http://AboutUs.org, and would like for WikiIndex to become a community-owned and operated resource. Would you like to help?

[http://blog.wirearchy.com/blog/_archives/2006/6/27/2060712.html Wirearchy] quotes [http://news.zdnet.com/2100-3513_22-6087566.html CNET News.com's Martin LaMonica's story] about collaboration and wikis:

: ''"This way of capturing collaborative wisdom, collective knowledge is a different take on knowledge management, '''which was fundamentally flawed'''" (said IBM Lotus Division general manager Michael Rhodin).

[[Spanking Art]] is a wiki on Spanking in Arts, Movies and Literature. Our vision is a wiki that features an article on practically every spanking artist, comic, author, video producer, actor, and website.


=== [http://recentchanges.info/?p=87 A knowledge revolution that has hardly begun] ===
If you are interested in spanking, this is your wiki!

An excellent article, [http://news.independent.co.uk/media/article1096343.ece The Independent: New Media: Who are the real winners now we've all gone Wiki-crazy?]
Spanking Art was founded on May 8, 2005 by Spankart, and is hosted on AnimeOTK.  It has already more than 1,000 articles and about 60 new articles per month. <small>[[Spanking Art|...read more]]</small>
: ''What wiki does for its users is what blogging did for web publishing: it provides an easy, quick, means to an end. In the words of Ward Cunningham, an author and an inventor of wiki technology: "Wiki does for knowledge what the assembly line does for material."''


Refreshing to see others with the hopeful vision, nice work [http://www.plugincinema.com/plugin/index.php Ana Kronschnabel and Thomas Rawlings]
