Hi NYLNers, this is Stacey and I'm making you this video, um, today to show you how
to Wiggio works. Wiggio is going to be an online space that NYLN uses to post minutes,
um, send out emails, discussion boards, things like that.. And it's pretty cool.. but it
can look a little scary to use and hard to navigate. So we're gonna go into how you um,
become a wiggio member.
So first you will receive an email like this. We'll send it directly to your inbox. So in
your email you will receive an email that says like wiggio group invitation from Stacey
Milbern. Um It'll say Stacey Milbern has added you to the group called and it'll be like
"NYLN Govenring Board" or it might be "Amy Doherty has added you the group called Outreach
and Involvement Committee" kind of thing in group on wiggio.com. Then it tells you to
click the following link to enter the group. So you click this link.
And it takes a second. Then it says you're joining such and such group. And so now i'm
gonna wanna give my name. [Typing sound] And you give yourself a password. And then, now
I am in! So now I am a member of the group. This is just a test group, it's not a real
group, so that's why everything says testing testing. Umm... Here is a bunch of discussion
boards... so it'll show you what people are doing, you can post something like this..
[Typing sound]
You can also change it so that you type in your message there and you click this down
arrow and say do not email it to people. So i do not want people to receive an email so
i click "do not email it". And then I post and next time people come on, they will see
this message and they can click reply and write back. [Typing sound]
And then you can have all kinds of disucssions with there. So that's one thing we can do
with it- have a bunch of discussions with it. Right now if you are getting a bunch of
emails from wiggio every time someone writes, you wanna go into your account and click this
button right here - it says send me each post by email, click change, and then you can either
get a daily summary of posts or no mail. If you click "no mail" you have to check the
wiggio website every once in a while because you will not get alerted every time someone
writes. So now it says no mail.
Here is the calendar. Each committee will have its own calendar. It's really easy to
add to it. Let's see, I'm going to add... [typing sound] and we're going to set it for
8 pm and then here we'll write [typing sound]... of course we'll give the conference phone
number. And you can set it so you can get a reminder or you don't get a reminder. I
like to get reminders so I set it.
So now it says Governing Board meeting and then um committee chairs and the president
can go through and add in all the meetings and make it so that people get reminders.
Here is a real cool thing. Under folders you can upload files and people can download them.
So... I want to upload notes from the call the other day. Let's see. Let's upload these
minutes [pause, and then typing sound] So I click upload. Now everyone who is in this
committee can download the minutes just by clicking on it. So if you miss a committee
meeting or Governing Board meeting, go to Folder maybe 3-4 days later and read the latest
notes.
So this is also a cool thing, but mostly committee chairs and the president will deal with it.
But basically if people wanted to set up a chatroom or conference call within wiggio
this would be the place to do it. And this is also another thing if committee chairs
want to handle this but if we wanted to ask what project would we want to work on? they
would create a poll and then you would fill it out. But you can ignore that.
But this is also a cool thing. Let's say you want to send emails to everyone in the group.
You just [typing sound] write an email, click send me a copy, and then click send the email.
Then everyone who is in your list just got an email. You can also do sticky notes which
will go on the front of the page when people log in. So that's pretty cool too. [Cell phone
rings] That's my embarrassing ring tone. So I'm gonna click "everyone will see the sticky
note". Sorry. ok. So everybody will see the sticky note. And the other cool thing - oh
this is mostly just for committee chairs and president - so people probably won't be able
to get this but – [phone rings] sorry! but committee chairs can make it so you receive
a text message as a reminder of when you have a committee call or a Governing Board call.
I'm not going to do that now though because everyone would get a text message.
So that's pretty much it. So the main features are the discussion board which is here, the
calendar, the folder where you can read the minutes, and being able to message everybody.
I'm going to log in - let's see - I'm gonna log in to my other one - my other wiggio account
- so you can see what the education and media committee wiggio looks like since they've
been using it now for a while. So if you belong to more than one committee it'll show up as
these circles. And then right here click show announcements and you can see all the announcements.
And here's the sticky note!
so i wanna go to the education and media committee. See everyone here is using it. There's a lot
of people using it. This is the Education and Media Committee. And it shows you that
people -- Savannah has uploaded a document called Next Steps and if you wanna read it
we just download it and we can see what Savannah wrote... so Savannah wrote these notes for
people to use, people can talk to each other, so Sara is writing back saying that the spreadsheet
is blank, Savannah is uploading all these things like the chat log, excel sheet, Allegra
is asking if we're having a meeting this Wednesday so... some people are giving out their contact
information... so yeah that's how that looks like. So yeah. The best way to post a message
is right here. right in here. You can also send an email to the address listed at the
top. Here's all the notes you can download from that committee meetings..
And yeah. SO that's it. Okay.
So i'm going to also include some official wiggio tutorial links in case this wasn't
helpful. OK. bye!
