This is an experiment in making collaborative public radio. We hope it will be a place to share ideas, and a complement to the Spark Blog</http> and radio show/podcast.

Where do I start?

A good place to begin is Spark Story Ideas. This is where you can find stories that we're working on or thinking about. Take a look and add to the notes with your own idea, or recommend a guest or a reference for an existing idea.

How do I use it?

Please feel free to add or modify pages -- even this one -- as you see fit. That's the idea of a Workspace.

• If you'd like an introductory tour of the Socialtext Workspace, start here.
• Every once in a while, visit What's new (next to Quick jump, at the top) to see recent changes and additions, and see Socialtext Documentation for tips to use this Workspace.
• Click the Edit button to edit any page you're viewing.
• To make links, type some text, then select it and click on in the toolbar.
