Mike Cannon-Brookes, Atlassian’s co-Founder, recently presented on Organisational Wiki Adoption at WebDirections South 2007 in Sydney, Australia. The presentation is excellent on both content and design – in fact, Mike set a goal of no bullet points: “FYI I set myself the challenge of doing an entire 1 hour presentation with no bullet points – and succeeded!
