I agree, viral marketing is the answer to anyone who wants publicity but, you need to
produce something viral which is gonna work - sure you can make t-shirts and flyers but,
it will not last and is not viral
Make something which will be dugg - if the nerdy community knows, the public will also
soon know
thanks, hope i made some sence, im tired and its 1am

Subject: Re: [ComProj] Spread Wikiversity!
Thanks for your answers and explanations! My answer is: Viral marketing.
It's a service at Wikiversity for pupils and students. They can use it or send a
mail to me. I have the ODF-documents...
Our big question at the German Wikiversity is, how to get Wikiversity into schools and
universities. You can create flyers and other give-aways, but what do you achieve? Our
timetables can everybody download, everybody can use them and everybody can need them.
Everybody who uses them, will bring the Wikiversity logo and a short information about our
work into schools and universities. Every pupil or student will so become a potential
ambassador for our goals and our idea. Do you understand? We believe the timetable is more
effective then a flyer or a information desk at the campus.
Our next step will be to distribute the timetables via project-news and so on...
Cheers,
Michael from Germany

Hi Michael,
Your first mail was sent to the list. :-) Gmail doesn't add a mail
you've sent to a mailing list to your inbox - it only shows up there
once someone replies. In future, you might want to check the archives
to see if it's been sent:

The timetables are interesting, and look good. They appear to be
designed to be printed out and filled in, right? I presume this is
optional for students - and that it is meant as a study aid, rather
than an enforced timetable? Finally, how is this "spreading
Wikiversity"?
Cheers,
Cormac

German Wikiversity. We made templates for a schedule of lessons and added
our logo and a short information about our project:
Wikiversity. Learning and teaching. Wikiversity is the new online learning
community for schools and universities.
You can easily find us at
http://de.wikiversity.org.
Something like this could be interesting even for other projects,
especially for
other Wikiversities...
