Some site changes1

Posted by Bru June 22, 2004 12:39 PM

Worked a little bit on blog and wiki during spare time yesterday.
The result are some subtle but, imho, important changes:
First of all, following the wikiFREEcation wave, I added UserCookiePlugin to my TWiki installation. This will permit users to register just once (with no password needed, actually: it's just a matter of "declaring" who you are, if you wish to do so), and then come back at will to freely add to the wiki.
Second, I changed the layout of the wiki a little bit, so now it should be more usable (or so I hope): moved the "action" links in a box on the right, modified the homepage and so on.
Third, I finally installed K-collector beta plugin for MT. Technically, it lets me add "topics" to a post while editing it, thus defining the post "context" through a metaphore called w4 (what, who, where, when).
Kc "suggests" me some topics, and then lets me choose more either from a list of available topics or by adding new ones.
Moreover, my posts will be regularly aggregated in the main k-collector site, so they'll be easily available to other people browsing for topics I chose.
You can notice the "effect" on the bottom right of each post (but just in the main index, at least for now): this post, for example, belongs to: Blogging tools, k-collector, Knowledge Management, MovableType, Wiki, and TWiki (the last one is new, curious to see if I'm allowed to actually create one ;) ).

    Well, I've got to study wikis a lot more before I could say anything interesting about it, apart the fact the problem of a new syntax to learn.

    About the K-collector, I'll wait for a new blog entry from you describing what you've found from this installation ;)
