Is Your Web Site Out of Date?. This morning I was talking to a company about what they did and told them I'd looked at their Web site. They said "Oh, that's out of date. We're working on an update." Think about the implications of that statement. It means that your treat your Web site as just an online brochure. That's like using a BMW as a dolly for hauling boxes. Blogs are an example of a way to use the Web that never is out of date. Everyday, my blog represents my interests, even as they evolve over time. So, if you ever catch yourself telling someone "Oh, my Web site's out of date", ask yourself what that implies about your use of the Web.

This blog entry about using wikis at face-to-face events to create an ongoing dialogue is interesting to me. The piece describes the use of a Wiki to have participants at a workshop create, on-the-fly, a book about the event. There were over 400 pages of content on the Wiki at the end of the event and then the workshop organizers assembled that into a book with ongoing collaboration of the participants. The O'Reilly folks use a wiki at their conferences, but I'm not sure how many people use it after the event. [Windley's Enterprise Computing Weblog] comment [] 4:34:07 PM
