Michael's homepage at TWikiDotOrg

Hi, I am a wiki consultant situated in Hamburg, Germany. My main interest currently is in helping companies to manage their knowledge as well as the skills of their employees using web two-dot-oh technologies, while not letting loose quality assuring processes. Wikis have got a lot of advantages fostering collaboration on a much broader scale than most other fully structured systems. However, while wikis' non-structuredness comes as a blessing first, people are quite lost how to map their business processes onto such a tool in a fruitful and sustainable way...

I've been part of the TWikiCommunity for a couple of years now and have been contributing lots of plugins and extensions (see below). Apart from nourishing my family and me, my work as a full time TWiki consultant is constantly floating back to TWiki (as long as it is not covered by an NDA obviously) to support a great great Open Source project and make it as rich and colorful as we all love it.

This site (twiki.org) might be wild and shaggy. Don't get frustrated if you don't find what you are looking for at first. Hey, it is a wiki running for a very long time now and people keep adding stuff all the time. Remember this is an Open Source project and all of our processes are captured somehow on this site. You are right saying we could do better organizing and even plain throw away stuff on twiki.org, but that's not in my hands alone.

Let me close in saying that any wiki you will get from one of my TWiki consultant mates here on twiki won't be like this, not in design nor in information structure.

So have a nice day and keep looking around. Yours, Michael.
