I wrote Federated Wiki while I served as Nike's open-data fellow. I currently work for NewRelic in Portland, Oregon.

Process
I am collecting my intentions and experience for a talk called Song of Code and Content.
I started by collecting notes about the speaking opportunity for Future Talk on a private wiki.
I created song.fed.wiki.org once I had an acceptable title and abstract for the talk.
I forked in content from my writing on other sites that seemed to have bearing on my abstract.
In the peace and quiet of a Saturday morning I wrote paragraphs that explained the connections.
I now had 3 original pages, 12 more forked in, and a neighborhood of 442 pages providing context.
I've new presented the talk. I will continue to tend this site to keep the song alive.

Demo
I used these notes to myself to make sure I demonstrated basic features of federated wiki.
