Just to get it off of my chest: in my opnion/experience, part of the burn out problem is nay-sayers-versus-doers.
Some thoughts/brain farts:
- I think having the content on the website is a good idea.
- The ease of the Wiki is also a major (if not huge) factor that made it successful.
- Curation requires commitment and commitment is hard.
- Having clear guidelines on what content goes where is a good way to
solve the “rogue”/misplaced content problem. - Talk is not a Wiki. (No, don’t even.)
- Wordpress is also not a Wiki.
- Wordpress is not a forum.
- Talk is not a blogging platform. (No, don’t even.)
The solution? As usual, it’s probably somewhere in between! How about we have an workgroup of sorts that figures out the strategy of how we’re going to do things. It’s a do-ocracy! We can’t expect dedicated people to deal with stuff; it’s much more organic. However if we define the guidelines on how we operate; if we create a matrix of what-goes-where, it’s going to be easier to curate. We can then also give people faster access to the blog/whatnot. Maybe integrate Wiki content into the website so it’s more easily/readily accessible?
Just some thoughts.
