What's being presented and About our speaker:

  Why?

  Suppose you have a small consulting/service shop—what should you use for a website? What is it for? How do you package and sell your knowledge? We shall explore a few examples out there, mostly MS-MVP sites, comment on structure and usability.

  What?

  Blog, wiki, or both? When should a content be in a wiki and when in a blog?

  How?

• Using WordPress and MediaWiki to drive a promotional & customer support site.
• Installation hurdles to overcome.
• Customer reactions.
• Benefits and drawbacks.

Extras

Wiki to go; run a wiki from an USB stick. Ideal for managing notes and "private" knowledge.
The fastest way to introduce wikis into an office (corporate) environment.
