Momentum builds for 21 Days of Wiki Adoption

Since my post Thursday, the buzz has more than doubled for 21 Days of Wiki Adoption:

21 Days of Wiki Adoption on AccManDennis Howlett from Spain has embedded the series on his blog AccMan:

Kevin Jones from the American Society for Training and Development wrote about the series on BlogCascadia and Engaged Learning:

There is not much that I would say, “You NEED to check this out.” But, really, you need to. One of the most oft asked questions I receive is, “How do you get adoption? There are so many hurdles – political, technologically, financially, culturally…”

Make sure you are watching these. So far the first two are short, sweet and to the point. Exactly what we needed. If the rest are like the first two, this should certainly help us to get the adoption of Social Learning environments in our organizations.

Nicola Avery from the UK writes about the series on her blog Aydin Design:

Stewart Mader of Wikipatterns, Wikis in Education and other great feats of wikitivity has started a 21 days series explaining wikis and how they can be used…When I was creating a variety of wikis last year and advising others on getting going, we used the wikipatterns to help promote discussion beyond ok – we’ve got started, now what happens.

Sinclair MacKenzie from the UK writes on his blog Fizzics:

I’m going to pay attention to what he says. I should have had a wiki by now.

Martin m³ Leyrer from Austria wrote on his blog m³s online pamphlet:

Me personally, I can theoretically see the benefits of Wikis in the Enterprise but still have to see a sucsessfull implementation. So I will follow the videocasts to see…

Thank you Dennis, Kevin, Nicola, Sinclair, Martin, Steve, and Chris!
