A New Way Of Writing Books
Co-authoring books or academic papers is pretty common today. Unfortunately, during such undertakings a lot of time and effort is wasted in the process by using the wrong tools. Facebook initially seems suited for the task, but it is more useful for
Online, August 17, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Lately several authors were commisioned by an Internet bookstore to collectively write an e-book. They tried to use Facebook for this purpose, but it appeared to be lacking the required utility. And then Projektino was offered as an alternative tool. The service was met with interest and positive responses by the authors, who felt more engaged when using this platform, especially with regard to the fact that Projektino keeps all communication, files and messages gathered in one place. That made it easy for the authors to contribute and discuss content as the work was being created. Consequently, a dozen of e-book chapters were created in a very short period of time. And so, by applying the agile development approach to co-authoring, there is much to be gained because focus can be put on what is most important, i.e. the creation of the content.
Projektino can be used for all kinds of projects where collaboration and communication between several people takes place, be it organizing a wedding, a holiday or a group seminar or writing grant proposals. Everyone who has had the opportunity to write such proposals most likely agrees that communication and organization of relevant content is quite a challenge. Thus, having a tool that helps in that regard is of great help.
