These questions are meant to grab your thoughts and goals as they exist right now. They might shift, coalesce or change completely as we go through this process. Go with your gut and what feels right, right now. We're not going to worry just yet about what's feasible or what your goals "should" or "should not" be, just what they are right this minute.
- The Why
- What is the role of "serendipity" in this project?
- Serendipity has a great deal to do with what I'm doing. It's how I work in the world. I grab on to ideas and opportunities as they show up.
- Has the wiki succeeded in its purpose if it becomes a place for some people to get hit with the right info at the right time, by happenstance, like a community corkboard where folks can pin flyers, notices and business cards?
- Yes, in part. I call browsing Wikidelphia "Exploring Digital Philadelphia."
• • Or would you like it to be more specific, strategic and structured than that? • • When is the Wiki succeeding in its purpose? • • When it is creating opportunity? • • When it answers someone's very specific question? • • When it supports/fosters a community of well-connected people? • • When it tackles a general social problem? • • When it helps solve a Philadelphia-specific problem? Several? • • All? None of these? • What DON'T you want to see Wikidelphia be or become?
• Would you like to see Wikidelphia operate more like an up-to-the-minute reference library, or a museum archive? Or somewhere in the middle? Or both?
• Is this an online version of the Everything for Everybody store, or is this the spiritual successor to it which happens to exist online? • • Or are they completely unrelated in your mind? • • If someone were to email you tomorrow with exciting news about Wikidelphia, what would be the best thing that message could say? •
