Re: [tw] Would this group be better on WhatsApp?

2017-11-21 Thread Alex Hough
Josiah,

How about building on top of SheepyWiki [1] and TweetWeaver [2]

TiddlyTweeter can have a column, expanding on his /her Tweets

In SheepyWiki I have built on a pre-release and expanded it prioritising
cloning as main way. There are various versions SheepyWiki1, SheepyWiki2
... get the picture. Each is built on the top of the previous, all junk is
included, minimal deletions. A bricolage.

I choose Dolly the sheep as an icon to make connections to represent
"wandering",  "sheep paths" and "dolly the cloned sheep"

How about this for a suitabley messy process: just start writing on top of
the online version, create your content, link it in then publish it to
github pages. Contributors can write on top of that, or drag and drop
tiddlers onto their own.

To be a zine process, it needs to demonstrate speed and DIY ingenuity above
all. Punk non prog

I guess it has to TiddlyZine. Or maybe TiddlySkunkWorks -- a fanzine for
version XXX pre-release

evoking a skunkworks would highlight the fast and cutting edge aspects of
the TW project

The idea is simple


wrtite the fanzine on a prerelease. report on  google groups activity,
twitter activity. Each zine is an edition relating the the version was in
pre-release. Once released, a new issue of the zine would be started.

I am willing to give it a shot of there are any other takers.

Ciao Ste

I looked at IFTTT. No interface with Google Groups that I can find.

In any case you'd have a problem with the volume. What one needs is a 
heavily filtered version that concentrates on major, working innovations 
and stuff that adds to documentation. Most of the stuff written here is 
ephemeral steps ... important at the time of creation, but of no long 
lasting value.

Lacking moderated tagging/classification on initial creation of posts on GG 
I think the human eye will be needed to make judegments. So its selective 
recycling needed, I think. I mean, a lot of my own posts I seriously 
wouldn't want to read as history :-). Riz, within limits of time, has done 
pretty well as a largely one man band on Reddit teasing out quite a lot of 
the good things but it is obviously not enough.

I am sure you are right that the serendipitous freedom in GG, combined with 
the nice people here, is a major factor in inertia to keep it. And a good 
one.

On the OTHER hand here is a *swamp of Lost History*. I'm forever trying to 
find things to reference in order to reply to people ... often I give up 
and don't reply. I CAN'T FIND STUFF that's anything more than a few days 
old.

Replies like "Mat did that about three months ago" without a link are about 
as useful as a head without the chicken. You got nothing to cook. If that 
is tough for me its a total turn-off for a newbie.

IF there were a PARALLEL GG that a full-time archivist were tagging/logging 
it would really help. What Riz has done on Reddit is part-way there, but 
too much for one person to pull off fully.

I did think in a mad way that a Twitter feed might be able to do the 
MINIMAL missing piece sustainably. Its still in my mind.

I think we need to be careful about making changes, the unintended
consequence of using google groups is that we get interactions which a more
streamlined system would design out.

We may find that the social flavour might change.

Re: [tw] Would this group be better on WhatsApp?

2017-11-16 Thread TonyM
Josiah,

I would host for free, or a sponsor add.

I have being professionally involved in growing an online community from 
2,000 to around 45,000 in enterprise social, yammer

I would consider something like Yammer, myself which is both a chat, 
microblog and long running conversation platform, file and groups, mentions 
etc... however any new platform needs every member to adopt.
I may even be in a position to offer a yammer network as well.

The trick is to propose an alternative and invite select people to 
participate, building a team of proponents. 

They will have to champion adoption and initially mine existing channels to 
republish content until economies of scale and content levels make it self 
sustaining.

Not withstanding this we should maximise the use of tiddlywiki itself, 
"drink out own campaign" (nicer than dog food)

Regards
Tony

IMO Google Groups is a PIT of losing your history almost before you made it.

I'll wait a bit on PMario getting beyond the Telegram which died in 1996 as 
far as I know. Though there are rumours some corporation stole the name 
recently.

Right. Lets not re-invent the wheel. Just have one :-)

If we had a wiki would it be legal to import massive amounts of data from 
Tiddlywiki.com ? I'm sure we wouldn't want to re-invent every wheel.

In my humble opinion, to get what TT wants, what this group needs is proper 
forums instead of Google's attempt to replace nntp. We also probably need a 
wiki that can be edited by mutliple people.

Forums would allow categorization of discussions easier.

A wiki with multiple editors would allow different people to manage 
different aspects of documentation such as end-user guides, developer 
guides, dedicated guides to each of the 20 or so savers, etc.

But to do the above would require funding for hosting.

Ciao Jeremy

Thanks for the reply.

I was being more prodding than helpful.

FRANKLY, though *GG is looking worse and worse over time*.

Our major problem is it CANNOT cope with the sheer complexity of TW as it 
evolves.

Right now is a very good phase in TW's history to know that, to see that 
clearly. 

I think our GG approach is seriously BLUNTING (a) its use; (b) 
understanding of it.

The Sixteen Plus ways of saving TW -- well you are NOT gonna be able to 
find all those on Google. Yeah TW .com gives access but TO a disorganised 
mess.

Can't we do better?

Best wishes
Josiah

WhatsApp is good for chat but it’s ephemeral: it doesn’t off permalinks or 
searchability. It might have a role alongside this group, but as a replacement 
I think it's a non-starter.

Best wishes
