We rate cities around the world and then roll up the ratings into a single file. Mostly this is an experiment to use the new multi-dimensional features of the FiveStar plugin.
Work in Whatcom County, WA, that lead up to our participation dates back to about 1985 or earlier. The effects from Pursuing Perfection continue, but not necessarily in the mainstream as RWJF had hoped, and not in Whatcom County as I had hoped. Such is life.
I have been using wiki software since the early 2000s. My interests are mostly around effective practices in using software that supports written collaboration. I am not much of a coder, and the technical side of things is more of a secondary interest for me.
My real name is Peter Dimitrios, but my chosen moniker for my online identity is PeteDaGuru. This was arrived at because at one time I had a pony tail and was proselytizing the wonders of proto-Agile development processes using object-oriented programming and Smalltalk. So folks around me labelled me "The Guru", and I thought that was a nifty alias to use for my online presence as I started on my journey through The Internet.
With this site I am participating in and learning from at least one wiki dojo. I'm happy to join more.
