Good that it's back but kind of sad that it has fallen victim to http://c2.com/cgi/wikix?JavaScriptAbuse http://c2.com/cgi/wikix?JavaScriptAbuse since for so long it was one of the few sites that managed to http://c2.com/cgi/wikix?KeepItSimple http://c2.com/cgi/wikix?KeepItSimple The wave of the future unfortunately goes even further from that.
The basic concept behind federated wiki is interesting, but it still needs to be simple, clean, and usable. As it is, the most basic things like selecting text or navigation do not work or work in totally unexpected ways. It shouldn't actually need instructions for basic things like How to Follow Links and How to View Changes ("you can view the changed page on that site by clicking on the flag of that page. Don't expect the link to find the remote site because it will likely be hidden behind the original page on your site." What?)
Just trying to find the list of sites, I have no idea what's going on here: http://c2.fed.wiki.org/view/welcome-visitors/view/federated-wiki/sites.fed.wiki.org/sitesfedwikiorg/sites.fed.wiki.org/sitesfedwikiorg/sites.fed.wiki.org/sitesfedwikiorg/localhost/welcome-visitors/fed.wiki.org/welcome-visitors/197217.c2.fed.wiki.org/welcome-visitors http://c2.fed.wiki.org/view/welcome-visitors/view/federated-...
- imode 10y agoward cunningham has a great idea with poor execution, and he's holding years worth of commentary on various technical subjects in order to satisfy his desire to implement his idea. I'm not a fan. I worry for the other rabbit holes of the internet that are still smart and able to be searched, mined, and mirrored easily.
