Here we describe what is special in federated wiki, and might therefore at first seem odd, unfamiliar or complex.
> Q: I think fedwiki is conceptually interesting, although maybe not for me at this point. But happy to learn as always.
> A: Federated wiki was created 30 years after the original wiki principle was established - by the same programmer, Ward Cunningham. Federated wiki ('wiki' from here onwards) was created for active collaborating and forking of content across a mutually engaging community of contributor-writers - "a chorus of voices". > Here's another perspective, from Marc Pierson See Fedwiki in Use
Here we discuss: - The support that wiki provides is basically for active Writing and modelling (rather than passive browsing) - wiki's function as 'An awareness engine' for writer-users - Affordances for Mapping and curating; and - Provision for Collectivity & mutuality.
