Just-in-time wiki

The April 18 STC Chicago meeting was on Just-in-Time Documentation and Training with guest speakers Jacqueline Napier and David Orr. The PowerPoint slides can be found on the wiki that we created during the meeting (http://stcjitslides.wetpaint.com/) as an exercise in collaborative development.

Jacque and David will post new materials on the topic as they become available. Feel free to apply to be a Writer so that you can add comments and information. If you sign up to the wiki, you can also invite associates who might be interested in the topic.

No problem. We'll help you get up to speed in time for the Summit.

Our new, quick-start blog training will include information about uploading photos to the STC Chicago photo pool and posting photos on the blog. Soon you'll be posting photos directly from your cell phone, if you so choose.

In a hurry to share your photos? Not to worry. You can read up on it here: Newbie's Guide to Flickr.
