Wikis all the rage: even US spy agencies create them
Wikis are all the rage now. Even US spy agencies have them. I have my very own too, but mine has simple goals. I keep it on a little USB drive. It promises to organize my life.
get your very own TiddlyWiki. Put it on a USB drive. Here’s 43 folders wiki: (how to get organized)
Definitions vary: “A free encyclopedia built collaboratively using Wiki software.” boring…
why bother with a wiki ?
The advantages are many: wikis can be about any subject you want; they are self contained: 1html file may hold a wiki. Wikis may be shared and updated instantly. Communities are built around them. Nonprofits love them (or should): Wikis don’t require software and they’re easy to maintain and update. They ARE the software, in a sense. Wikis depend on browsers, true. Wikis are self-organizing: you can build a wiki and organize it as you go….
(What I want to know is …. where can I get that wiki that the US intelligence community unveiled this week. If they unveiled it, I want to see it. I want to know what’s in it: we could do a trade. )
Got a wiki ? Tell us about it. What’s your wiki and why should I care?

TiddlyWiki is cool … not that I’m really into wikis … it is a great and small solution.
Thank you.
I didn’t name this site, but wish I did. Having a website with a swear word in it inspires me: I want to hang out with Louis Black. I could give him boatloads of comedic material.
Just imagine what’s in the wiki for Homeland Security:
1. unload all that duct tape at the dump
2. send more troops to Iraq
3. recycle all those little scissors we collected from the airport
4. find all those lost laptops
5. put wikis on usb drives, so when government employees lose the laptops, they still have their wikis
6. listen in on a few phone calls…
7. call mom (in Texas… oops… George’s wiki got mixed in somehow)
8. check on Google Rank: at least the CIA gets a good ranking… oh yeah… we’re a secret wiki, darn, no PR
9. check google maps for the Ranch (oops, that’s George’s wiki again)
…
Anyone know how to get in touch with Louis Black?
LOL!
