My friends Matt, Andrew and I start the morning at work with a cuppa and a chat about life the universe and everything. We discuss our respective work as Business Analysts and Information Architects, what projects and meetings we have on that day and then proceed to get to work. Each of us have a blog and what I find amusing is that sometimes what we have discussed over a cuppa is on Matt’s or Andrew’s site before the end of the day
This week was no exception. On the way into work I heard on the news that staffers from political parties have been editing Wikipedia in favour of their candidates for the upcoming election. We discussed this over our morning cuppa and commented that it was amazing that a social computing tool had been used in this way and the powerful impact of these tools to create “spin”. Before long I saw my comments echo back to me through my friend’s post.
So my goal is to try and be more dedicated to my blogging and not to leave it too long between posts otherwise I will always be lagging behind. At least these friends are keeping me “on my toes” and challenging me. What more could you ask for
