Businesses in a world of wikiJune 23, 2006 http://recentchanges.info/wp-content/AsburyParkPress.png This article from Asbury Park Press makes an interesting point about how companies will have to manage their PR in the "free-wheeling online world of Wikipedia." It seems to me the writer either doesn't understand wiki or is just choosing to focus on a large website, Wikipedia. What is more interesting to me is what companies and governmental organizations are going to have to do, or not have to do, in a "free-wheeling online world of" wiki. They mention Eli Lilly and Co. and the edits to that page on Wikipedia, but what I can imagine is companies having to figure out what to do with an entire wiki dedicated to the pharmaceutical industry or even to Eli Lilly and Co. itself. This forces transparency. This forces companies to change the way the operate their business. (for example see what SourceWatch is doing in terms of think tanks and the like.) Of course this all centers on the idea that people will embrace the simplistic self organization of wiki, which I excited to see. (see Why wiki is good for work) |
Hoped this was going to make a splash, humor works all the time.June 20, 2006
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. |
zefrank vblogJune 9th, 2006 Over at the wonderful video weblog zefrank, he has opened up the script writing up to contributors of his wiki Zefrank. The wiki is used to write the script for the show: Fabulouso Friday. Was it successful? Congratulations on 1,500+ script edits and over 15,000 views of the Fabuloso Friday script! |
