Can Wikis Be Used For Collaborative Todo Lists?

My todo list is always making a lot of demands on me. But it has grown to the point where my todo list is demanding it's own wiki website to keep track of itself. Since todo lists can be very unmanageable when they don't get their way, I decided to give it one. So here is my todo list's wiki. I hope this wiki will help my todo list figure out what I should do.

You created it, whose responsibility is it to lose it

I respond to a blog post about "What's wrong with a web server on every desk top?", and I start wondering about where your data is.

 

My latest bio

This was so great, I just had to put it on my home page....

About the author

Garnet likes responding to blog posts, and fantasizes that by shredding old old books to turn them into data bits, he is giving them the next best thing to eternal life. He splatters his 100gb hoard of scanned pages across hundreds of domains and servers located all over the world, and has deposited backups at secret locations in several countries. When he's not scanning books, he's building wikis. You can vist Garnet's free online place to put your next wiki site, at The Hive Wiki. And when he's not digitizing old books, or building wikis about Adventist Theology, he's also The Literature Evangelist. Buy your Momma a large print family Bible from Garnet, and they'll both thank you, and pray for you too!

 

Caffeine drinkers are getting younger

Will the energy drink manufacturers of today, be the deep pocket class action lawsuit defendants of tomorrow?

A sad note

Asia Carrera, every red blooded male's fantasy girl, who I was amazed to find out was married to a lemmon, is now a widow with two small kids! Her husband died after his Jeep rolled on June 11, 2006. (BTW, she's been on the web for 10 years, and she is only 32!) 

 

As if becoming a widow wasn't bad enough, she recently had to put her cat to sleep too! Her cat died from complications to a surgery to fix an intestinal blockage. The scar from the surgery is actually pretty small. I took care of a cat in Bulgaria who had eaten string and needed the same operation, and the scar was twice as long. The Bulgarian cat, named Booska, survived. I was amazed everyday when I took her to the vet for followup antibiotic injections, they charged me $1 each time. You can't even get a napkin in a free clinic in the U.S. for a dollar!  Anyhow, keep your feline friends away from string, even the smartest of cats may fall for eating it. Here is a cute picture of Asia nursing her child with the cat being very cozy. And one way to get the little ones to be quiet while she is updating herr blog.

 

Oh, and Asia is asking for you to help her out with the purchase of a video, or even just a donation. You could also buy some of her poker chips.

 

NBC Video: Odd news
* Can you dig it?
Nov. 1: A new calendar, featuring funeral directors from around the country, called "Men of Mortuaries," hopes to reap some cash to benefit breast cancer research. KTIV's Melissa Lanzourakis reports.

 

Garnet wonders, "Men of Wiki"????  Benefit for carpal tunnel syndrome, or falling adsense clickthroughs? Any takers?

 

Stuff From 2005

I guess I ought to archive this stuff somewhere.... I need a data maid!

My Newest Articles

Anyhow, I decided I should use the top of the page to showcase the newest articles at Garnet's Sudsy Soap Box. So here is one of my latest:

 

Generating Quality Web Content

There are two big challenges for website owners:

  • Generating more web traffic
  • Generating good web content

 

The more fundamental challenge is generating good web content, since if done properly, it will help to generate more web traffic. So the biggest challenge is either creating, or finding, good content to add to a website.  Click here to read more about my latest research on free web content resources.

 

Lots of new content on the Pet Cat Wiki....

Welcome to my first try at SiteKreator 2.0.

 

As I have been trying out SiteKreator, I've been building a page about the SiteKreator introduction.

 

I also created a directory of my most recent wiki sites.  I spend a lot of time in wiki.  Most of my new articles are on the Chat11 wiki, for example this morning I wrote an article about Breatharians (people who claim to live without food for years at a time, existing only on air and sunlight, and maybe water).  A Breatharian was a 1999 Darwin Award Nominee Confirmed True by Darwin, titled "Airhead Extends Principle to Abdomen" (22 September 1999, Scotland). A Scottish follower of Breatharianism demonstrated a comprehensive misunderstanding of biology during her recent attempt to "Live with Light" in the Scottish Highlands.   I wrote a wiki editorial about the issues of Greek dualism, torture of the body, and the pleasure circuits built into us by God.

 

 

Unsolicited Political Email

 

I got an unsolicited political email from my congress person, Lynn Woolsey, yesterday. Congresswoman Lynn Woosley included a survey at the end of her email. The list of possible things for her to work on aggravated me so much because of the options that it didn't include that I decided to write this open letter to Lynn Woolsey. I've posted variants of it around the web, hoping that someday she might google her own name and come across this

Elizabeth Taylor's Legendary Diamond Jewelry

 

Someone today brought to my attention the book by Elizabeth Taylor,  My Love Affair With Jewelry. I decided to write a short article about Elizabeth Taylor, her diamonds, and her humanitarian work.  I also have a few other directories of Elizabeth Taylor related information that I'll mention in the article.
