My interest is in digital literacy.. getting people to stop using computers as fancy typewriters, instead create reusable statements, schemas, queries, progressively build on their knowledge in focused ways, always able to learn from examples. SMW excels at that. Any content on an SMW site can be reused between functions, and sites can access each other's information. | My interest is in digital literacy.. getting people to stop using computers as fancy typewriters, instead create reusable statements, schemas, queries, progressively build on their knowledge in focused ways, always able to learn from examples.

MW/SMW also comes with a culture of Creative Commons style licenses. On a MW/SMW site, any user can create their own sub site out of pages and structure, and take it away if they need to. On a Drupal site, it's all top down. | |||
I try to get this across to clients, ultimately they usually enjoy the overview but can't participate for their own good reasons, which is fine. SMW isn't ready for everything yet, but I think the markup approach is the best way out of MS Word / forms based approaches. | I try to get this across to clients, ultimately they usually enjoy the overview but can't participate for their own good reasons, which is fine.
