Compulsive wikister
My research group sent me a whole bucketload of documents and
spreadsheets I need to read before the meeting on July 15. What's the
first thing I do? Wikify it!
I can't help it. I'm a compulsive wikister. I believe that a
well-maintained freely-editable website can give community depth
because the consequent culture of documentation encourages people to
think about making lasting contributions of knowledge. A wiki can be a
catalog of resources, a place for discussion, and even a venue for
light-hearted fun documenting strange things.
It's 12:58 AM. The PLUG technical session is in 8 hours. My party is
in 12 hours. What am I doing? Wiki wiki wiki.
