Wiki Wiki - It's hawaiian and means fast!

I agree with Lesley's idea for a wiki. The smartbook needs updated often and needs to be housed in a large space where people of all capabilities can update.

However, as the same with wikipedia, the largest wiki in the world, editing can become a problem since anyone can update. We would need to appoint people to update in order to avoid problems. 

I found an article in Ad Age that references an agency that created a Hispanic phrase wiki called Diestepedia , check out the article below. What kind of wiki could RMD create? How about a list of agency terminology or terms in the food industry? What do you think?

So much to learn, so little time - Tagging, folksonomies and technorati

I started from basics here in order to fully understand the business applications of these social media tools. 

Tag - A non-hierarchical keyword or term assigned to a piece of information.

Folksonomy - The practice and method of collaborately creating and managing tags to annotate and categorize content. Del.icio.us is an example of a web site using a folksonomy. I just signed up! Are you registered, why or why not?

Technorati - Internet search engine for searching blogs (the RMD media team uses this often!)

Wiki to you!

We could put the SmartBook on a Wiki. It would ensure that everyone has access to the most up to date version and it would be easy to update. My only concern with Wikis is that anyone and everyone can access them. If company's are considering using Wiki's for internal business, the Wiki should be set up so only members of the company have access to it and have the ability to edit it....kind of like Yammer.

Week 5-Del.icio.us!

This week has been social media central (in a really good way), so it's fitting that I closed it out by finally learning about Del.icio.us. It's such a cool service! I created an account and started bookmarking away. I like that you can look up blogs on technorati and then tag and save them using Del.icio.us. This is a great tool. If anyone else creates or has created a Del.icio.us account, share your username so we can all share bookmarks. Mine is Waldsmith...very original. So far I've only tagged a few sites, but I'm looking forward to using it more this week!
