Paper Wiki - PostIt/Sticky note collaboration rocks
Participants at the Blogcamp over this weekend were encouraged to contribute to sessions, even to the schedule by adding their own topics.
I had seen such collaboration as part of business analysis sessions I learnt from my favourite boss of all time Bill Paulson. We used to create sitemaps collaboratively, and asked client representatives to add pages using sticky notes. It got everyone out of their seats, get them into a more involved state and really got them talking and contributing. Moving around the notes till everyone was happy about the site structure and freezing the final structure gave us a collaborative sitemap faster than any other methodology.
I know Wikis, being virtual, are more efficient, but there is a magic about such paper based collaboration that is hard to reproduce in Wiki .. I would prefer face to face collaboration where I could afford it. Wikis ofcourse rule when there is just no scope of meeting face to face.
