The wiki of wikis
Wikis are for people to easily collaborate on the creation of content. Wikipedia, one of the most successful projects on the web, is a wiki.
This page is the master wiki for organising projects on visionOntv. Crucially it is a self-organising space.
Here is a step-by-step guide to using the wiki.
Please try to build the structure of the wiki as you go along.
Here's an example: Let's say people are talking about which video cameras to buy, and you want to talk about tape cameras - for that you should create a sub-page for tape cameras. But then someone else wants to talk about memory card cameras - that is not a sub-page off the tape cameras page, but a sub-page off the original video camera page.
So when you add content, think if you are writing it in the right place, and enjoy adding to the fund of knowledge which the wiki pages will be by making it really useful, like wikipedia.
If in any doubt, please contact us at info@visionon.tv

(Plan for RSS and the media player to come in off the back of this)
Stop talking about RSS and talk about AtomPub instead.
The only way to get technology funding at the moment seems to be to modernise, make contemporary, the traditional media, so we should do that.
Which partners therefore, and how to approach them?
