- NoteToSelf: The most important thing to do for WikiIndex currently is to understand that WikiIsSlow and I need to focus on NutsAndBolts right now. My best to all on this project.

Hello, I am new to MediaWiki and so am introducing a bit more WikiWay to it. I enjoy this space! :-)
I began my wiki fascination in January 2002, thanks to Kirk Kitchen and his YpsilantiEyeball wiki for the chance to learn about wiki. I also was mostly with the MeatballWiki community, which I still consider one of my main wiki homes. I also am part of the CommunityWiki crew.
Recently I attended WikiSym where I met Raymond King and John Stanton. We all grooved on the idea I began several years ago SwitchWiki. The original description is at the now defunct YpsilantiEyeball and at MeatBall:OneBigWiki, and the first iteration of it, a flat 26 alphabetical list, resides at WorldWideWiki:SwitchWiki.
I am extremly excited about this project for I see it as a stepping stone to continued SelfOrganization of information.
The idea of a wiki of wikis is recursive to me. Thus I am thinking and working on RecursiveNatureOfWiki as examples of the ideas I am trying to groke. Another fascination of mine are community interactions on wiki. There were a group of us at WikiSym who were interested in this, WikiPractices is what we called it, and the page resides at MeatballWiki.
Even though I have used wiki for over 4 years, there is much I need to learn and hope to always have the capacity to learn.
So I have this idea for a Community Page that would be something like WhatILearnedOnWikiToday which is just stories on a wiki page, like a weblog, reverse dated, pile the next one on top. I think it would be a way to share what we learn about, with and from wiki.
I asked my housemate to type in switchwiki into the address bar. WorldWideWiki:SwitchWiki hit first. He then made from the world wide wiki site to the WikiIndex. He sat back and was amazed at the front page, so many choices, I sat back and went, hmmm, does the front page look to complex? wouldn't it be nice to just have a search button in the center like google. but at this site, you can edit your search page if you want..? Interesting idea I had, but the real issue is we just need to think how we want to be presented to people. Anyway, I asked him to pick a site, he chose one that had 'Hard Wiki on it and he went there. After stumbling around a bit he clicked on the photo, remarked postively after visiting the CreativeCommons site. Then asked how to get to the wiki, I said it was easy. He then found it and went to HardWiki and I thought the FrontPage was nice. News on the right, community edited news. (RecentChanges.Info maybe here on the wiki, similar to what CommunityWiki is doing. He found a news article that linked to google video, and then he started to surf it. Like I enjoy surfing wiki.
Enjoy! :-)
