Wiki Life

April 15th, 2008 . by Coffee Master

I have been working with my business partner on making garden gnomes to sell online. We have a corporate website, a wiki, and all sorts of other great collaboration tools. I am a huge proponent of wikis, but my fascination with ideas does not always translate into practicing what I preach.

We have setup a socialtext install of the open source version of their wiki software. I love how it is put together, and is a great solution, if only I knew how to organize it better. Since Jeff, my business partner, and I are leading the way in the company for it’s use. The term Ross Mayfield of socialtext uses, is “gardener”.

I sympathize with dewy, from the dewy decimal system (no clue if it was a real guy, anybody feel like wikipeding it, post in the comments). How do you categorize ideas, projects, and tasks that are all related to each other? As I figure this out, I will write my conclusion. Or better yet I will find someone else with a degree in project management who has a nice blog on the subject, and link to them!

ta ta for now.

Salt River Rafting

April 15th, 2008 . by Coffee Master

So, I really want to go on a trip down the salt river. This opinion has only been bolstered by my research into the subject. Here is an excerpt from a “prominent” website on outdoor adventure:

Nature and the Salt River carved the 2,000 feet deep Salt River Canyon that’s loaded with spectacular views. Rafting the river is the best way to experience the views. Beginning at the Salt River Canyon Bridge north of Globe Arizona the river thunders past red canyon walls where side canyon waterfalls feed into quiet pools. Enjoy the co-existence of solitude and the raw-power white water Class III – IV rapids. This stretch of the river covers about 60 miles as it calms near Roosevelt Lake Dam.

Sounds like fun to me. There is also this great blog that talks about it, and even posted this great video.

So, I am going. When, how, those questions will be answered in time. But I am going!!
