Why I learned to stop worrying and love the wiki
- A wiki, you see, is the voice and platform of the worker, and there are many, many more workers than managers. A wiki is a way for workers to organize themselves and to serve their own needs without waiting for the boss, the manager, or the Encyclopedia Britannica to do it.source
Past activity
I led a session on how to use a wiki for organizing social justice issues at the Atlanta US Social Forum, without a computer - and am a long time wiki walker. Co-founded http://WikiIndex.org and am extremely interested in using wiki for organizing for social justice.
I have consulted at the wiki project Green Policy which is documenting all progressive resolution.
Best, Mark
