We’re starting to save our campaign information to RPG Herald. We used to use Tiki-Wiki to save our information. In the past, we’ve run into two primary issues with saving our campaign information: attention span and ease of use. The problem with ease of use was that it was difficult to teach others to use a wiki, and how to use it correctly. The attention span issue was that only 1-2 people would ever have the ability to change the wiki, because it wasn’t always easy, and while a campaign might start well it quickly was forgotten until the start of the next campaign.
Hopefully the ease of use will be resolved by using the new RPG Herald web site as it is pretty simple to use while allowing for a lot of customization. The attention span issue will also hopefully be resolved as we’re going to have everyone in the group involved, to different degrees I’m sure, but involved enough to help keep the site updated. There are other sites which offer services similar to what we’ve setup on RPG Herald, but most of them are either pay sites, not any better than our previous wiki, or limit the number of campaigns you can have.
Additionally, RPG Herald is open for anyone else to use as well, free of charge.
