Why Wikis Rock

If you have been confused about the exact utility and function of wikis, take a look at this very fun and accessible video clip by CommonCraft.

I have be a what you might call a "power-user" of the project management sofeware Basecamp for several years now. And, of Blogger. Oh, and TypePad (which powers this site).

Plus I've sunk oodles of time and ca$h into designing the Web2.0 app for graphic facilitators, MissingLink. All of the aforementioned tools are essentially mutant forms of a wiki--as is the ever popular source of all knowledge, Wikipedia. Each one of these browser-based tools allows multiple users (aka. people) to create, edit and participate in on-line communities.

MindMap WebApp: Bubbl.us

Sometimes clunky if your connection is slow or if the mindmaps get too large. But a fantastic Flash-enabled tool!

clipped from www.lifehack.org   bubbl.us: Flash-based mindmap creator  bubbl.us allows you to quickly and easily make effective, attractive mindmaps that can be exported as images or as HTML outlines, or shared with others who can add new items or draw new connections between existing ones.
