Multimedia Wikipedia: Can Video Be Collaborative?
Our contention, however, is that while technical issues in adding media have certainly had a limiting role, is this all that has kept multimedia from dotting the pages of our favorite collaborative encyclopedia? Can video be collaborative? While we wonder about the collaborative nature of the site versus the more fixed nature of video, others have This morning, the Open Video Alliance is launching a campaign to bring video to Wikipedia .

Guard Your Living Rooms: Google and Its A-Team Are Coming to TV
If Google's boxes are going to run HD content, they'll need some kind of graphics acceleration from Nvidia, Qualcomm, or Broadcom. Allegedly, the project is so far along that that little collaboration we saw with Dish Network a few weeks ago was actually a test, but no release date or timeline has been announced. The Team: Google : The mastermind. Of the three major connected screens users have (TV, mobile, and computer), Google has made firm stands in only the latter two--and now they're coming for TV.

  • Collaboration Tools
    As I mentioned in Real-Time Collaborative Editing , I had a fantastic experience participating in group editing of a Mind Map of collaborative tools during a session at Learn Trends.

  • Tom Vander Wall Nails My Sharepoint Experience
    For a number of years I have cringed every time one of my clients tells me that have or are planning to deploy Microsoft SharePoint as a collaborative platform. functionality (open social interaction, ease of use, ease of working in the flow, sharing collectively, aggregating in context, and eventually getting to collaboration) is not the platform on its own to do this without very deep pockets for development. The They say it is their “social media” deployment. SharePoint is many things, but it misses the critical element of social media which is networked connection

  • Remote Collaboration
    In other words - How do we collaborate together in remote work teams to be as effective or even more effective than a team that works down the hall? Let me admit that I'm likely in over my head when talking about methods and tools for collaboration. At the core, when I look at what a team needs, it's a pretty simple list: Real-time Voice Screen Sharing Document Editing (sometimes) Asynchronous Share / collaborate My primary interest here are the methods and tools that allow us to work better as part of remote work teams.

  • Content
    So when Julià Minguillón invited me last week to be a collaborator for a book chapter he is putting together on content management and e-learning I was both a little relieved and more than a little intimidated. told him that while I did not feel qualified to add much in terms of traditional approaches to educational content management, or the emerging deep semantic web, I did think there were some important considerations I would be happy to try and articulate.

  • Best Online Collaboration Tools with Robin Good
    Live blogging this session from the Corporate Learning Trends & Innovation Conference with Robin Good. The end of the content God. Lots happening all over the place. This is my first mind mapping experience so I'm mostly learning how to use a mind mapping tool. Together we're producing something new and unique -- 150 users adding tools and URLs to the mindmap at the same time. Feeling like the exercise itself is the learning event -- not so much the listing of individual tools (although that's a bonus) -- but seeing how everyone's collaborating. The teacher now serves as mentor to help us create the best thing together. So now we're going to edit a mind map together using mindmeister . Login issues -- Robin says, "when you're trying something new, we've all got to be patient..." Everyone's adding tools to the different categories on the MindMap -- whoa.
