Wikicamp in Chennai on February 25

A few months ago, I was an organiser for Blogcamp.in. Recently, I got to know that the guys behind Blogcamp are back at it.

This time they are flying in Jimmy Wales, the founder of Wikipedia, for Wikicamp.in to be held in Chennai on February 25. The venue is the same as Blogcamp - Tidel Park.

Wikicamp.in will be a one-day event that will bring together the best minds using Wiki to talk about issues and opportunities surrounding it. The event will also look at the future and evolution of Wiki, which is one of the most valuable tools on the Internet.

The event is an unconference along the lines of Blogcamp.in. This means that all the sessions will be interactive and everyone can pitch in with what they want to discuss about.

Mr Wales, obviously the superstar of the event, has played a big role in the formulation of Wikicamp.in through his support rendered to The Knowledge Foundation, which is the primary organiser behind the event.

Topics of discussion include: How corporate companies are using wiki to increase business productivity, wiki vandalism and its solutions and structured blogging & distributed content architecture.

If you need a group of well-informed folks to discuss things that you could do using a wiki or what you could build on top of already existing Wiki-based knowledge platform, then WikiCamp.in is the place to be at. Visit www.wikicamp.in to register for the event.

A short note on TKF: The Knowledge Foundation is a non-profit body formed by a high energy team of technology enthusiasts whose aim is to create a healthy ecosystem of constant learning. The members believe in the spirit of learning by sharing. They believe in the power of collective intelligence.
