Where does wiki adoption fail? Is content more important than format? Should you power a public website with a wiki?

Tech Writer Voices PodcastGet the answers to these and other questions on wiki adoption and uses by listening to Tom Johnson’s podcast. He interviewed me at DocTrain West last week, and we discussed:

  • The relentless focus on simplicity in wikis, and how that makes participation democratic
  • How wikis are useful for technical writers
  • Why content comes before format when using a wiki (and how that ultimately makes for better format!)
  • Techniques and strategies for growing wiki use and adoption
  • The number one reason why wiki use fails
  • Why you need to make sure internal wiki use is successful before using it in any external-facing way
