7. 7 Semanticommunity.net The Semantic Communities have used various pieces of infrastructure to support their activities and now we have the opportunity to move forward to make these pieces more versatile and widely available to support the multiple piloting activities of 2008. Please see the tutorial slides and follow the new paradigm of "reduce, reuse, and recycle". For example, it is said 'that Wikis are a victim of their own success and their contents become difficult to navigate and find', so this is an opportunity to refine existing Wiki content and build new Wiki content that is more effectively organized instead of just copying existing Wiki content to this new space.tutorial slides
