If you have access to resources, contacts or ideas to help out please use the Feedback page.
- Testers
- Automated entry form for Network Weavers. The automated entry form would ask for key words and use them to set up your wiki directory page. It combines the best of manual and automated. New users can join in and then learn more as they work with other weavers.
This feature could be a resource provided by EFN for node development. Wherever the user logs on to the tool (through whatever portal) they will have an opportunity to self-identify and set up a directory page in other EFN nodes and social networks. They can self-select little boxes for NW directory, Oguild, Coaches Guild, Currencies etc… and it creates a directory page on that platform.
This will require opensource partnership agreements.
- A series of network weaver’s meet-ups (use meet-up or potentially partner with Idea list and others…)
- Strengthen local chapters and develop intermediaries who are comfortable on-line and in face to face neighborhoods, who serve as conduits and educate people on-line about real world social networks and educate people in local communities about the power of the internet.
- Social Networking Analysis Tool:
