not an EBook, but something more...

possible meta/goals:

• Hyper Text cross-reference

• add corrections and updates

• add outside knowledge

• grow a community, etc.

• sell more print books

• make money other ways?

• distinguish your original ideas from other people's?

• avoid annoyance of Comment Spam

Some approaches to taking a "finished" book and working with a WiKi.

• publishing it as a Personal Wiki editable only by yourself

• treat Public Wiki space as a supplement - make a node for each idea/topic in the book, maybe with a sentence or two to connect things, then let the community go from there

• go ahead and put the entire contents into a Public Wiki and let them mix-master

• put contents into a Public Wiki but only let others append to each page, not edit what's above.

  • or could put comments on entirely different pages, but I don't like that model as much...

• ??

Other macro changes to this model:

• write the whole thing as a public wiki, with other people's help, as long as they know up front that you're going to keep all the money!
