• Confluence – Enterprise Wiki

  Wikis are wonderful but there are times when an enterprise solution will facilitate the adoption of collaborative technologies when open options are deemed too risky. This app is promising if it can truly deliver what it claims to offer.

Do you know what this button means?

If you don’t, you soon may if many wiki platforms have success in promoting their Firefox extension for the Universal Edit Button. The idea is akin to the now almost ubiquitous RSS icon. When you come across a page that is editable, this icon will appear in your address bar letting you know that you have the ability to edit this page. It is hoped that this branding will serve as an open invitation resulting in an increase in the participatory culture that has made the wiki world so unique.

While a terrific step in the right direction, my desire is that wiki developers will seriously consider embedding this functionality into the web experience such that an extension is unnecessary.

Thanks to ReadWriteWeb for the alert.

My CV as viewed in Wordle

June 18, 2008 at 9:05 pm · Filed under EdTech, Random Thoughts, Web 2.0

Like many others in the EdTech arena, I’ve been playing about with the tag/word cloud imaging app Wordle. Below is an image which represents the data in my most recent C.V. Interesting to note that in a technology career of nearly 20 years, the most prevalent terms, outside of technology and my online persona EdVentures, are: learning, development and management.

  From D’Arcy Norman, something that fits in well with my LMS revisioning schema. Wonder how it relates to something like Profilactic?

  • EduGlu is a concept that came out of some discussions at Northern Voice 2006 – almost exactly 2 years ago – as a way to make sense of an individual’s distributed content in the context of a course. The problem is on one hand very simple – a person publishes a bunch of stuff, and all they need to do is pull it into a course-based resource. On the other hand, it’s really quite hard – how can software provide what appears to be a centralized service, based on the decentralized and distributed publishings of the members of a group or community, and honour the flexible and dynamic nature of the various groups and communities to which a person belongs?
