Join me in Brighton, UK, 3-4 September for Wiki Workshops

I’ll be in Europe in early September for WikiSym 2008 (Porto, Portugal - 8-10 September), but before I get to Porto I’ll be stopping in the UK to give a workshop in Brighton.

Evening Gathering - 3rd September

On 3rd September from 7-9PM, the Whuffie Club is holding an evening gathering at The Werks (Map). I’ll conduct a short session on wiki use in organizations, answer questions, and then we’ll have a mixer afterward. Sign up for 3rd September

Workshop - 4th September

On 4th September at 9:30AM, I’ll be conducting a half-day workshop at The Werks on Effective Project Management Using a Wiki. If you’ve been thinking about using a wiki, are just getting started with one, or want to maximize existing wiki use, this is an excellent opportunity for you and your team to learn how a wiki can help you manage projects.

Teams can use a wiki to organize and work on critical documents and project plans. It lets people work more efficiently between face to face meetings and becomes a magnet for all the information relevant to a project. This workshop will show you how to:

• Organize your project on a wiki
• Help your team make the change from trading emails and attachments to gathering, building, and editing information on the wiki
• Manage everything related to the project, including background research, notes, URLs, timesheets, meetings agendas & minutes, action items, and finished documents, presentations, and files
