the usability of a wiki
12.22.2005 | Toothless Tiger
as an entrepreneur I will try and adress the issues that I have on my projects, and Can I Crash ? is allready experiencing some. it’s not fatal errors – nor is it extremely important, but to some extend the usability needs to be improved.
Heck we have only been running for 2 days now and there has been a lot of people adding country and city links, and then not going further.
is the wiki not integrated enough in the blogosphere to be used by “Joe Normal ?”
anyway, I have added a search function and I am testing a RSS feed with the recent updates. I will add it when I think it is running smoothly enough.
how can you make a Wiki more usable? – is this the right format at all for Can I Crash ?
if any of you wiki gods ( or goddesses) out there has any suggestions – please let me know

I think the wiki is indeed the best tool to organize this kind of information. You might add a blog for service announcements, user feedback, success stories and big events coming up.
It would be good if the site showed up for a Google search on e.g. “bloggers london travel crash” so you might put some more information in each location page (because they are all potential landing pages)
Great idea! I added myself to the directory!

Of course you can make them more usable… much more usable… adding wiki-aware editing tools would be a HUGE start
