About this blog
This is my personal blog which I started in 2003. At first it was called Communigations, a variation on Communicative Investigations. The blog transformed itself more into a personal investigation than being a blog on communication and therefore needed a new name.As a fencer, the name of this blog reflects how I write my thoughts into coherent stories, fence them off from all the sidepaths and rapidly go back and forth, covering various topics that interest me.

New website for me and my colleagues
For two years now, together with three colleagues, I’ve been giving workshops on basic web 2.0 skills and online facilitation. Up until now we’ve used a wiki for announcing our workshops, but it wasn’t the proper platform. So at the end of 2009 we decided to claim a domain name and build a new website for a professional presentation of our workshops and services. So hearby I present to you (a Dutch site):
faciliteeronline.nl
Now that the website is finished, we can work on the next step: building an online community around the topic of online facilitation. It’s an area of expertise not many Dutch know of, but skills more and more needed by people organizing online projects or projects with an online part. Nancy White is a big inspiration for us and we’d like to pass that inspiration on to people in a Dutch context.
More on this soon, so if you’re interested, stay tuned!
