Bloomingpedia talk:Introductory Presentation 2007
From Bloomingpedia
Hello!
I think this is great. I just did a presentation in Atlanta at the U.S. Social Forum regarding wiki in general. I would suggest, time permitting, you think about adding these talking points:
- Ward Cunningham, founder of wiki in 1995 is a Hoosier - from a town near Gary, IN
- WikiIndex, a wiki of wiki, a meta place for self organized information - co-founded by Mark Dilley, another Hoosier, born and has family in Indianapolis.
- AboutUs.org is a wiki of the internet, your wiki page on that wiki is http://AboutUs.org/Blomingpedia.org
- Brian Kerr from Michigan is interested in organizing civic wikis: http://www.AboutUs.org/Category:Civic_Wiki
- Facebook group for this, just added
Enjoy your presentation and let me know how it goes!!! :-) Best, MarkDilley
Ah... the question of turnout. Something that I have worked on for many years as a labor organizer. Would love to talk with you if you are interested in processing this and brainstorming next steps. Excited to see the video none the less!! Best, MarkDilley
