Writing about Wiki - New Book Project

I mentioned this in passing on my Twitter account the other day, but as it was officially announced today, I thought I'd post a few more details.



WIKI: Grow Your Own for Fun and Profit
by Alan J. Porter

Looking for a way to increase team collaboration, manage your company’s knowledge? Do you need a way to manage projects with customers or suppliers outside your company firewall? Would you like your customers to provide feedback on the information you publish? Then a wiki might be just what you are looking for.

Perhaps you have already decided that you should use a wiki, but are not sure how to go about it. Maybe you have a wiki but would like to encourage more people to use it. Or you would just like to learn more about the practical applications for this fast growing technology.

Then this is the book for you.

WIKI: Grow Your Own for Fun and Profit will introduce the concept of wikis, and show why they are becoming the must-have communications and collaboration technology for businesses of any size.

The book will also include several case studies highlighting the ways that various companies are using wikis to solve differing business and communications issues, and the resulting benefits in terms of both efficiency and customer satisfaction.

WIKI: Grow Your Own for Fun and Profit will be available early next year, but we will keep you informed with excerpts and news along the way.

The official web site for the project is HERE, and it will be updated as the project progresses.
