Viewing the wiki demonstration

Viewed the example of the use of the wiki to coordinate a trip. Concept was good but at this point I can't think of an example of where I could use one in my job description. I see similarities with O common file where anyone can add or change information. Still thinking and have had a look at the University of Tasmania wiki.

Informal networking

Attended a good session with my work unit and discussed this project. Saw a great demonstration from one of the bloggers and looked at various applications. The session was light, and gave everyone some great ideas. If we were feeling a bit jaded or tentative about going on with the project or even starting, we felt a bit more confident after that --well that was the aim of the session organised by our Manager. Shared some good pages and had a few light bulb moments, realised that I had been in the World of Wikis all along with our Heritage Wiki. Thank goodness for Ann's wonderful enthusiasm and thoroughness! My partner wonders how I can blog and do my work at the same time Ah!, but it is work!
