Créer un livre avec WordPress, c'est possible...

Hi, bonjour,

Je suis actuellement en train de créer un livre sur WordPress, oui créer un livre sur WP est possible... Actuellement je l'ai essayé avec un de mes hobbies multiples, la cuisine, une collection de bonnes recettes afin de me familiariser avec la création de livres...

J'utiliserais prochainement cette technique aussi pour d'autres publications, mais voyez plutôt vous-même :


Actuellement il y a deux recettes :

Pour les amis auteurs francophones...

Salut, bonsoir,

Je viens de créer, pour changer un peu et pas seulement faire la migration, un nouveau blog (blogue) qui utilise le thème "Choco" de WordPress... Un thème que j'aime beaucoup et que certainement j'utiliserais prochainement pour d'autres publications et projets...

C'est un exemple comment utiliser WP pour publier des blogs pas nécessairement éducatifs, hobby en fait... Mais voyez plutôt vous-même...

Pour les amis auteurs francophones...

Salut, bonsoir...

Je viens de publier un nouveau knol migré vers WordPress, sans passer par WordPress-Annotum, mais en choisissant un "Thème" différent, mais voyez plutôt vous-même :


Les knols à migrer qui n'ont pas de co-auteurs n'ont nullement besoin d'être migré vers WordPress-Annotum, on peut chosir aussi (sans co-auteurs) un "Thème gratuit" proposé par WordPress... Avis aux amateurs de faire votre choix, mon choix est fait pour mes cours gratuits sur la sécurité informatique, dont voici l'adresse URL :


Restez branché(e)s pour la prochaine publication... ;)

Knol to WordPress Migration-knowledge and experience exchange...

Hi,

As mentioned already in several previous posts, I will share my experience with the migration and give you also Help and some Tips and Tricks...

Apparently my publications are very welcome on WordPress as they are featured for the tags "knol" and "annotum" on WordPress, see screen shots below:


and here for "annotum":


This shows me that I am welcome on WordPress and that my publications who respect quality guidelines are also welcome...

BTW: I got recently (let me brag a little bit...) also honored and recognized with the title of "Lord of Curation" by Scoop.it, one of the best "Curation sites" worldwide where I curate a lot of topics, most about Education and IT Security... my main knowledge base...

Check out also my blog on WordPress about curation to learn more... What is Curation and How-To Use It

If interested you may have a look on my curations as they will give you more knowledge, 21st Century knowledge who is also necessary for a 21st Century author:

Hope this helps and stay tuned for next posts ;)

Knol to WordPress Migration...

Hi,

My first English Knol is migrated to WordPress, I did a manual migration! I also used not Annotum Theme, as this knol is a single author knol, but I choose a FREE Theme from WordPress...

So, you may see now what is possible to publish with WordPress and the different Themes...

Update. see also other helpful curation here:



Have a nice day and best regards,
Gust

My first multi-author English knol is migrated...

Hi,
My first multi-author English knol is migrated, the ancient knol “For a Better World“. 



As I don’t like to use the automatic Knol migration where there are a lot of bugs in and even some unwanted surprises, so I decided to download all my knols as a file and to choose my knols one by one to migrate them manually.
This is a lot of work as HTML needs to get changed to make it fit for WP, but I think it is worth to do this step.
BTW: It took me more than 2 weeks to adjust this knol so that it fits best for WP-Annotum, it is now +/- 98% what I wanted, so I still need to work a bit on it…
Live me please a comment to tell me what you are thinking about this new blog, thanks in advance…
BTW: I wish you ALL a happy New Year ;)

My visitors don't share my posts!?

Hi,

Analyzing my posts statistics I seriously feel sad about what I see, ONLY selfish interest by visitors!? Not a lot from my posts were shared by social media; thus meaning ONLY selfish interest by Knol authors who are visiting this Blog!?

Do you know that I can do the same also!? I could STOP to post on this Blog and ONLY publishing on my WordPress-Annotum account and this by making public my tutorials ONLY to well chosen authors!? This is possible also!

I would like to see more community feeling by my visitors here, otherwise I will do what I explained above ;)

If I am wrong, let me know and share the links to my tutorials in the comments section here and also on Internet, thanks in advance and have a nice w/e ;)

A 5 minutes tutorial as shown here needs 4-5 hours of preparation minimum to me, so be kind please and respect others work and share it also with others :)

Wish you all a nice w/e ;)

New small tutorial available: posts, articles, pages...

Hi,

Did You Know: Annotum has posts, articles and pages…

So what is the difference? Let us start with “articles“, which is something NEW and most of people won’t understand it (I didn’t neither on the beginning when I started with Annotum…) and might be confusing… That’s why I started to make some search about it and here what I discovered:


Check out here:

===> BTW: seeing how much authors from Knol are visiting this blog (my statistics tell me that...) it would be much that appreciated that you forward it by Twitter and other social medias and not ONLY use it for your own purpose! Community, please... Not selfish thinking ;) <===


Stay tuned for next 5 minutes tutorials and posts ;)

My blog posts well accepted on WordPress and WordPress-Annotum

Hi,

I feel proud and happy about that for the second time already in 3 days time my blog posts were featured on WordPress Home Page:



and also featured here:



Looks like my messages to Knol authors are well accepted by WordPress responsibles... As certain authors might have realized also; comments on WordPress concerning Knol Migration who are open to post on in different posts from the administrators and also in the forum, are very quick made "closed", no interactions possible anymore... 

WordPress is much more civilized as Knol ever was and administrators of certain discussion enabled posts and blogs take care of their responsibility and "close" these posts when they are going out of control and out of topic... I appreciate much such decisions, there will be more sane behavior which is good for a community...

That's my personal point of view, if you have also something to share you are welcome to leave a comment...

Stay tuned for next experience exchange with the migration Knol-WordPress-Annotum and small tutorials ;)

Knol is dead, show what you are able to do on WordPress-Annotum!

Hi,

Check out my new small tutorial, which is even more a BIG wish when Knol authors are migrating to WordPress-Annotum and forget about making strange comments on Knol Help page please ;) WordPress Community is already watching us newcomers (Knol authors...), so...

Check out here: http://knolannotummigration.wordpress.com/2011/12/06/knol-is-dead-show-what-you-are-able-to-do-on-wordpress-annotum/

I want also to thank the WordPress community for their warm welcome of Knol authors.

Have a nice day and best regards,
Gust

Stay tuned for next small tutorial and posts ;)

Why do I present ONLY small tutorials?

Hi,

Why do I present ONLY small tutorials?

This is a question I got asked a lot of times, even from the responsible people from WordPress-Annotum on my published Annotum-Account in comments...

As I am an ICT instructor (an educator...), I know (with my pedagogical background...) that people (learners...) are mostly tended against everything NEW (me included...), there is a psychological barrier somewhere in us, which is normal, which is human...

You might be interested more about this, please check out also my curations about "Procrastination" who explains a bit more... Learn more: http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching?tag=Procrastination

Knowing this, so you might understand the reason why... Small bits of knowledge and information are getting accepted much more easy by the brain and even people who don't have the necessary time (that's what they think... maybe they are overloaded with information and can't manage it...) will be able to learn it, step by step to get the necessary information for the migration Knol-WordPress-Annotum...

By this way of sharing knowledge (skills...), people don't need more than 5 minutes per post to understand the NEW ;)

Easy to follow, the deadline for migration is ONLY on May 1st, 2011... Lot of time to get used before... of the new home "WordPress-Annotum"...

Don't have the time to read completely this blog post? Why not reading ONLY the "bold"?

Enjoy it and stay tuned ;)
