5 Uses for a Wiki at Work

Lifehack.org has put up a list of 5 Uses for a Wiki at Work. My personal favorite.

Operations Guides- As fast as you can put down information on what to do in a certain situation at work, it changes. Right? “If the A server goes down, reboot the router.” No… scribble, scribble… Manuals are dead. If I owned a wiki company, I’d sell tee shirts that said “paper is dead.” Wiki-fy your operations manuals (and sure, print them once a month to keep an offline copy, should power go out).

The others are Dashboard, Water Cooler Fact and FAQ Lists, and Making Plans. Head over to LifeHack to read the full posting.

In addition to a Wiki, I think a forum would be a good addition. Think how much a company wide forum would cut down on the “puppies free to a good home” emails that go out to the entire staff.

Question, Comments...
