Dokuwiki is different in a number of ways, most primarily in that it is one of the wiki systems that stores things in files, not databases. But I’m converting my tech wiki to from MediaWiki to DokuWiki. I’ve always liked wikis, and I have used MediaWiki a lot in the past, and I do like it.

That was one of the big reasons I had been looking for good web conferencing a while back (I’m still looking…) I’m starting my foray into this territory by giving a free course in the database management system, PostgreSQL. The course is a 12 week course, starting on November 19th (with time off for the holidaze.)

For one client, I am their technology go-to person, since they are really small, and have no tech staff. But I help them plan their technology initiatives (a new database, a new website, etc.,) I’ll be the project manager on their big new client database project, and help them think about how far to dip their toes into Web 2.0.

I love it because it’s really easy to set up and back up (it’s all files, not in a database,) and it’s has draft autosaves (yay!). I have become a complete devotee of Dokuwiki , which I use locally on my laptop, for my to do lists, notes, etc. And I contribute to varied other wikis, which are on varied other wiki platforms.
