Wiki Proliferation

I'd like to teach the world to Wiki (being a Wiki-Junkie)...

Wiki Beats Weblog

Spreading Wikiweblog

WikiWeb Life Cycle of Group Forming - do we need One Big Soup? For a Webs Of Thinkers And Thoughts?

CommunityWiki:WikiProliferation - Mass Use Of Wiki, Mass Coverage By Wiki

Some (Dec'2012) ideas on niches for spreading Wiki

Meta:

• my goals are to
  • spread NoteBook-ing Culture
  • spread Wiki use
  • end up with an income from wiki building or something...
• cf WikiTypes
• some of below may overlap with 2012-06-28-TiddlySpaceProgress
• these notes are also inspired by period public navel-gazing of Tiddly Space crowd, as in this Dec'2012 discussion started by Dickon Bevington.

Software Forge: you have to recognize the success here already in integrating Wiki into other functions (Issue Tracker, Version Control System, etc.) - though many of those users under-use the Wiki strengths.

WikiWeb Social NoteBook (some folks have referred to a "social EverNote" model) - grow network of Reflective Thinker-s whose ideas get cross-fertilized (Stigmergic) by richer InterWiki features (cross-WikiLog, also leveraging Private Wiki Notebook-s).

Student Wiki Web: similar idea, but

• focused on a particular "market", which leads to targeted features such as...
• some sort of "class/course" aggregation model so that students still own/control their own spaces, but teacher interaction is increased.

Team Wiki Web: similar idea, but

• focus on SMB market, with an emphasis on easing the fuzzy progression from private notes to shared and structured ideas and actions.
• have a model that avoided or minimized non-paying users
• focusing on web/cloud system, while having some lite tools for initial content-capture
  • partner with other cloud players, like Drop Box (to hold the assets, while WikiWeb holds the Note Meta Data

WikiKit: Structured Wiki as new HyperCard or MsAccess, targeted at Telic teams who want some Bespoke Situated Software for CollaborationWare. cf Structured Wiki For Situated Collaborationware

• Software Forge could be considered a subset of this
• Sales Force Automation/CRM is a natural set of features that many teams would love to have
• Thinking about Douglas Engelbart's CoDIAK model of Iterative BootStrapping of Augmenting Human Intellect, I think much Progress/Evolution will come largely by having software people within non-software teams. Some of their work will require low-level domain-specific development, but some will be about process and Infrastructure, and a Structured Wiki could be a great toolkit for that.
