Book Reviews of Wikipatterns

Book Review: A must have guide!
Summary: 5 Stars

The 4th time I read the book was actually today over the course of the last 45 minutes. I'm doing some research for a project I am on and I remembered something from WikiPatterns (the book and site) would help a lot.

The book was written by Stewart Mader a Wiki Evangelist for Atlassian. Talk about combining a writing project with your hobby/job? Nicely done Stewart!

The book itself is hailed as "a practical guide to improving productivity and collaboration in your organization" and anyone who has read it will surely agree it's that and a whole lot more. It covers a lot of the basic ideas behind what a Wiki is but it also gives some very practical and sound advice about how to start and grow a wiki! I'm a huge consumer of the [...] which the book has a lot of information found there but the book itself has become a reference manual for me in terms of the brilliant selection of case studies found in it - my favorite is the first one from Leap Frog. Each time I review that case study I am reenergized to continue my own quest for the ultimate "Inbox zero", the way that Leap Frog approached and has begun to utilize their wiki is nothing less of inspirational and is a driving force for me - work related I keep all papers, thoughts, ideas and such in my Wiki personal space and when I have flushed them out I make them public (still within my personal space) I've very rarely documents or such on my system unless I'm forced to, usually because the rest of the project members are simply not comfortable yet with a wiki environment!

I have hope and will continue to help push the concept, armed with my wikipatterns!
