Virtual Collaboration - what works and what's missing?

Get Feed

Is possible to do problem-solving by throwing media into a group of varied expertise, e.g. Q&A question, blog entry, wiki page, twitter hash, twine, topical web page, or phone or web conference? Do you have tips on what to use and where it is more effective? Any differences in cases for industry, academia, government, security, and so on? Any ways to combine approaches, e.g. for mobile and data mining? Thanks.

      I think it is, particularly if you get the right group. There are some difficulties with lack of face-to-face interaction, but it is possible. We've done it here in Twine. Several of us a few months back got together to brainstorm via a private Twine to develop submissions for Google's 10/100 project. We collected research under various headings, had roundtable 'free thinking' discussions on topics we developed, and ultimately put together 3 different submissions that were sent into Google. The original review date by google has been extended, because they received over 50,000 entries, so we're still waiting patiently to see/hear the results.

      During that timeframe, there were several issues that came up regarding utilizing Twine as our medium for interaction. A few of us made a series of comments to the (then) Twine Beta Feedback and Suggestions Twine, for improvements and/or feature additions that would make Twine a much more functional tool for this kind of collaboration.

      Unfortunately, because that Twine has been locked down, user comments, shares, and discussions are no longer accessible, and I can't even view the postings in my own Items Twine, so I am unable to recall all the things we discussed. Hopefully, Radar Networks and Twine will follow up on their promise to re-allow user access to their content within this Twine, but for now, I am unable to resurface it. Too bad, because there were a great deal of things we said there, that would follow along with exactly what you are asking.

        This seems to be an example of functional, as well as topical, twine for industrial case. Am guessing future anthropologists attempting to dig up historic precedents for semantic web conferencing would have to stitch them together from lifestreams if they were not archived by designated feeds. Thanks.
