From Collaboratory

Welcome to the Blue Oxen Associates Watering Hole. This is the Collab Wiki, a Dynamic Knowledge Repository of our community's knowledge on all things related to collaboration, as well as a gathering place for our community.

We also have a place for informal chatter; we'd encourage you to participate there as well!

The tool that runs this site is called a Wiki. If you're new to Wikis or this Wiki in particular, please read Wiki Zen, then play in our Sandbox.

[edit] About This Community

We are lucky to be part of a large network of practice centered around collaboration. Additionally, Blue Oxen Associates hosts a number of collaboratories for different groups and projects.

This collaboratory (the Collab Wiki) serves as a Dynamic Knowledge Repository for this community, with wisdom gleamed from all of our different collaboratories as well as our community at large.
