I added some content to my Federated Wiki instance today (some links to articles on pizza, and a link to the University of Kansas Community Tool Box). It was fun, and did not take too much effort to remember how to add new content. I should play around with Federated Wiki some more…
Whose list is it?
I make “to-do” lists all the time. I try to do them electronically, but the most successful ones are just written on a pad with a pen, and completed items get struck off the list.
My wife also makes lists of things to do, but when she does that, I tend to think of it as “her list”, not my list. If there was something on her list that I was going to do, I would add it to “my list”
So, it is important when making a list to consider “Am I doing the things on this list, or do I think someone else is going to do things on this list?”. It would be good to have direct communication with anyone you have an expectation of doing something on “your list”.
Recently, I saw Melody Kramer put out a call on Twitter for help with a project to document web presence of all local candidates for office in the US, and Ben Werdmuller on how a software engineer can help with climate change. The outpouring of responses was amazing to me. This is an example of how interactions on Twitter can pay off.
