Help me grow the TiddlyWiki Community (Yammer)

[TonyM]

I believe I have the answer not to so much, replace google groups, but run a better solution along side it.

Based on a lot of experience including building a 2-4K membership to 45K membership network on yammer,

Request an Invite Here https://www.yammer.com/tiddlywiki/

I am posting it here in a new thread to reach a broader audience. 

It is a micro-blogging platform, a social media tool, a forum and includes documents (multiple people can edit at once) and links, with groups like micro-sites.

Yet this is quite a complex issue for many needs, and no tool may be perfect but if you do not try my suggestion how do you know? 

Yammer also has come conceptual differences so please maintain an open mind until you understand what it is, I will know people are "giving it a go" if they ask Questions, I will monitor it and help anyone.

Let me point out I have invited you all to test out Yammer at https://www.yammer.com/tiddlywiki/ just visit this site and request an invitation with your preferred email address. It may take up to 18 hours to process unless you are in my Australian time zone, for me to respond (as in the Case with Google Groups)

We now have 19 members, but little or no activity. 

From the outset, I think this will be great for the community including the ability to embed discussion groups, in your read only WIkis online. A great feedback method but since conversations take place in the network all other community members can help each other. I have anticipated many of the issues that may be raised and have answers. 

However I am offering this for free and hoping we get some organic growth because helping you all, will be a high enough commitment, I am not going to argue with people who have criticisms without actually trying to learn about it first.  Of course if it does not work for us we do not use it.

Regards

Tony
