Welcome Wednesday: Did you know Collaboratory is happening?

[Jimmy Seddon]

Welcome to Wednesday!

August is Collaboratory month, if you aren't aware of that, the first session is happening today at 10:30am PST:

Also, there is a badge that you can earn on your Community profile

My question, will require you to do some research first (this goes for me as well). What I would like everyone to do is watch the first session, then in the comments discuss the most interesting thing you learned.

If you didn't learn anything new, share something that was mentioned that validates your team is doing the right things.

Have a great rest of the week everyone!

Thanks for bringing the Collaboratory series to our attention, @Jimmy Seddon! 

Templates! I enjoyed listening to Matt explain templates in Confluence. Templates are so powerful. @Matt Reiner _K15t_ reminded me of the "Placeholder text" (Instructional text). Very cool feature in Confluence that I should use a lot more.

P.s. love your Napoleon Dynamite giphy :)

Yes!  Templates are fantastic!  I'm really bad at designing a good layout so I rely on templates a lot!

Great post again, @Jimmy Seddon ! I wish I could get some time out of my busy schedule to watch these sessions. I am aware of Collaboratory series but haven't got a chance to view the first session yet. I am hoping to learn something new in Confluence once I get a chance to review  the sessions on a later date.

Have a nice learning experience guys!

@Taranjeet Singh I know the feeling.  I have yet to watch it myself.  I'm hoping to have a few minutes after I put my son to bed tonight!
