February 20th, 2009 Knowledge, Websites| 2 Comments »

Yesterday I found an interesting website, which applies the wiki principle on another area: http://www.wikihow.com

This is not about lexical knowledge of the masses but about How-To’s on several fields. As usual in wikis the contents are written and produced (you can find video How-To’s as well) by the community. Another approach on the “Wisdom of crowds”.

Just to give some examples, you could find those 10 How’to’s to improve your professional life:

  1. How-To manage Geeks
  2. How-To be a good manager
  3. How-To develop an IT Change Management Program
