wikis are wonderful!

Wikis are wonderful - and very useful.

Yesterday I set one up for our family party in 2 weeks time. To avoid having 20 bottles of Pimms, (fairly typical of everyone choosing booze,) I decided to create a wiki so everyone could note down what food they'd bring and we wouldn't end up with a glut. It took less that 10 minutes to set up from scratch on Jeff's email and we've already have a couple of answers. In fact it worked out just as shown on the video Isla recommended about wikis.

The food and drink list has been edited and added to by different members of the family and we can all see it . It's easy to share and saves loads of emails.

Wizzy!

Staff manual here we come!

Thing 12 - wiki

I think this is just what we want for our staff manual. Will have a play with uploading some of our documents and editing them. It means we can all edit processes as they change and everybody will know where to find the latest procedures.

Very useful for any collaborative ventures.

Mind you - don't know what happened to by Google gadget - it's on my edit screen but no sign on wiki - still haven't cracked it. Nil desperadum! There's always tomorrow.
