Wiki Wednesday October 3, 2007

Wiki Wednesday is a meetup with a featured speaker or discussion topic, related to wikis. We get together to chat, learn about wikis, find jobs, talk deals, and hang out. People who participated in the all-day Wikithon (a wiki hackathon) can show off their cool hacks. Anyone else is welcome to give a brief demo or lightning talk. Socialtext and co-hosts will provide the space and food.

Our featured speakers for October will be a team of IT folks from local public television station KQED. They're a non-profit organization that uses wikis heavily, and they've got insight to spare -- especially for other non-profit organizations or internet media gurus.

Speakers will be Craig Rosa, Interactive Producer from QUEST at KQED, and two of his colleagues, the KQED content coordinator (main wiki gardener) and web systems engineer (who set it up and creates custom scripts / pages / forms as we need them). They will be talking about their wiki installation, which runs on Twiki.
