Ze Frank is getting more popular, and one of the tricks in his bag is a wiki that he is encouraging folks to help write the daily 3 minute video weblog show. Very fun. After the first script was written by many, many folks fighting to have what they thought funny be on the front of the script, it was like writing by committee. I suggested they think about the wiki in a different way, and reconsider focusing on the main page.
