Page: Meatball Wiki: GoogleSideWiki
Google launched in Sept 2009 a
new AnnotationWiki, that has the potential to glue all public Web pages
and CommunitiesThatScale via host wikis.As it already allows and generates links, it appears superior to the GoogleSearchWiki.GoogleSearchWiki
misses important properties of a wiki as described in
Wiki:WikiPrinciples, however it makes a very convenient community tool
by its syndication to social networks (Twitter, Facebook, blogs).To make GoogleSideWiki more like a real Wiki, we can use the following technique as a workaround: Write a contribution in any wiki which has a rich LinkLanguage vocabulary in CamelCase , take a text-only copy (of some subset) of it and paste this as annotation to an appropriate page in the web. At the end of your SideWiki comment add as link: Visit the host wiki of this annotation to have all CamelCase words resolved as links.A special case of this suggested workaround is making this contribution a SideWiki annotation.contributors: FridemarPache, JuanmaMP, .. Visit the host wiki page http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?GoogleSideWiki of this annotation to have all CamelCase words resolved as links.
