Shelley’s IT Kitchen

Shelley Powers set up the Wiki for her cooking class. The class begins 10/25 and runs through 11/5. You’ll find IT Kitchen here.

The IT Kitchen is a two-week clinic for webloggers and those who read webloggers and even those who don’t but still manage to use the web without stumbling all over us. The focus of the clinic is on community participation, contribution, and benefit.

I’ll be clearing room on my schedule to work in the kitchen. Sandhill sux these days. It’s time for some new recipes.

I love the gender politics nuance qua literary allusion of the IT Kitchen. It wasn’t that long ago that our old shade tree mechanic Doc Searls set up the IT Garage. I’m thinking that with the IT Kitchen Shelley’s revealing a little humor and who knows - maybe she’s getting in touch with her inner Grrrl. Shelley says

Finally, I’m working with a couple of other people on a different site called the IT Kitchen (no relation to Doc Searls IT Garage–unless he wants to hook up, and he and the garage would be welcome). This site is going to host a two week interactive clinic focused specifically at non-techs, explaining as much about all of this as possible. Not everyone who programs is a professional; and not every non-geek weblogger wants to have others handle their CSS and basic site maintenance.

I’ll help with the dishes.

    Frank, thanks, both for here and at IT Garage.

    Yes the name was a tad tongue in cheek.

    Time to roll up the bloody sleeves at the human sink…

    (That’s tongue in cheek, by the way–but in keeping with some blogs I know. I do the dishes at home so, being a tech illiterate, will join you there, Frank.)
