STC Spring Event Feedback

From http://blog.wikiring.com/Blog/BlogEntry20:

“Yesterday I attended the STC (Society for Technical Communication) spring event, where I was invited to give a talk on uses of Wikis and Blogs in industry. There was a great deal of interest in the way wikis can help enable collaborative authoring, especially in reducing the length of the revision cycle, and in engaging SMEs in the writing process.
I shared the platform with Ellis Pratt of Cherryleaf who was speaking about the impact of Web 2.0 on technical communicators; not a small subject, it emerges. Ellis drew a lot of examples of new and existing sites that either claim, or actually do, implement Web 2-ness. Ellis had an interesting way of breaking down Web 2 so that it is more comprehensible to the layman.”
