Exciting times at Socialtext

May 5, 2007

Ross Mayfield (my boss at Socialtext) got the whole company blogging and chatting on IRC this week – it is really impressive how his company-wide blogging-101 training session seems to have brought “the t-shirts”and “the suits” together… you could feel the energy and the tempo move up a notch or two… barriers dropped, conversations started. Actually it was a blog post about cultural dilution within Socialtext that seems to have kick started the process.

It is great to be part of such a dynamic and exciting group of people.

Note to self: The worst cultural influence that Wikipedia has is the lack of humour to be found in wiki projects (with some exceptions)… we must inject some humour into the wiki world at work…
