comments on infogami at reddit :
-Infogami seems subtly different from a wiki. I think it is more like Backpack. Perhaps somewhere in between a wiki and Backpack. With a little work, this would be perfect for creating and managing personal web sites. I mean web sites for typical users, not web geeks. I'm not sure if markdown is simple enough for that market, but it is a good start.
-And people would use this instead of MySpace or [insert favorite blog software here], why?
-an elegant union of the unstructured text with revision saving of a wiki and the dated syndicated content of a blog? It could be huge.Of course, because the ideas are not particularly new, it'll be all in the implementation.
tough crowd:
-It's nice to have a new idea too, especially when you say stuff about how your thing is gonna do for the web what the Mac did for the personal computer. If there was any evidence of that kind of thing to be smelled anywhere, I think you'd find a little more willingness to wait and see on the execution.
-The trouble with Infogami is that it doesn't have a "big idea". The Mac's "big idea" was GUI [Graphical User Interface] for the masses. Infogami needs some core feature that made people think "Wow. That makes creating a site an order of magntiude easier than anything before." The Mac was a revolution - Infogami is just a me-too wiki service.
AaronSw 3 points 1 month ago: We already have one, it's just not exposed yet.
-Infogami is just an in-place CSM for wiki/blog sites. I'm guessing the pinnacle will be a graphical (drag-and-drop) interface for modifying page layouts. [note- CMS stands for Content Management System a generic name for a web application used for managing websites and web content]
-if infogami gets on Digg and del.icio.us/popular soon then that's the end, people who read those feeds will check it out, will find out that it's a zero feature wiki, will go away and not come back or pay attention when it gets mentioned in those places again. And why should they? It'll just be "infogami now can do what xxx cPanel feature does" or whatever, who cares? Certainly no one outside of the demographic of people who read [redditDiggdel.icio.us/popular], which is why it will never get publicity beyond that, and why initial publicity there is the kind you can least afford to waste. Maybe Slashdot will hold off until infogami supports viewing site logs, and it'll get some bounce from that.
-I wish they could explain what it is and why I want to use it. I signed up out of curiosity and it looks like WriteBoard.
-hat exactly is infogami? and if it isn't done yet, can it morph into something completely radically life-altering? hmmm.. i wonder. congrats to aaron and others involved.

delicious - seems to have fixed the in-line editing so that full note space is preserved.
but! still changing to 'just posted' and moving to top of my bookmarks when I edit one
eg all my infogami- just changed to tag 'web' - and now the ones originally marked on 4/9 will show 4/22 as date posted
also all the 2nd life pages I added tag 'virtual' and that changed date
bah o well maybe I'll decide not to care prevervation its all the same context orgigins let go
appears - just tested - that if I go to full screen edit, then changes do not affect original date.

mm. Waylon Jennings. great. tribute album. songs all by him? no, some.
NGriffith covering: just because You Asked Me To. - writ by W J w Willie Nelson, likewise Goodhearted Woman (GuyClark covering).
nice from Norah Jones ~ I dont want to get over You. -not by W J and Amanda neither.
