Notes from conference presentation, "Enterprise 2.0 for Information Professionals", Sydney 14 August 2008.
The presenter: Andrew Mitchell, national Manager, Technology and Knowledge, Urbis.
Slides will be posted on slideshare.
Playing videos of staff members talking about how they use the wiki.
Use it as a project delivery tool.
Many beneficial behaviours naturally managed – weren’t built-in.
Every day about ten per cent of staff use it for project work.
Wikis don’t have to be like wikipedia and produce fully formed articles but can be partial, on the fly comments etc
Do need some structure but they let it emerge.
Need someone to do gardening – lots of little things all the time to finese the site. But some mess is OK and freeform is OK. It’s also OK to be out-of-date sometimes.
