Learning Alliances

As a member and leader of both CPsquare and com-prac, I recommend them both as unique resources for information and support. We host a wiki that gathers references and information about articles, books, and other resources and a directory of researchers. Also, as part of our book on Stewarding technologies for communities we are developing a wiki that describes tools for communities. (Many pages from my personal site could move over there, eventually.)

I try to post slides on Slideshare.com and relevant photos on Flickr.com.  Some talks, book chapters and articles are listed here.

Telephones and phone conferences

• Inexpensive synchronous voice communication
• Meeting on a telephone bridge
• Recording phone calls — for absent members or distributed note-taking
• Good practice for phone-based CoP teleconferences
• Conference call resources — joining text and audio

Web resources

• An example of a community shingle with comments (see a more descriptive page on Community Entry Page)
• Web Crossing Participation Choices

Putting it all together

• Re-use what’s already been produced
• When funding come to an end
