One of the things common to success is the
SharingOfWork. From the gathering of the nets in fishing to the give and take sawing using the two-handled saw to drop large trees, work sharing has been used to good effect. In
ExtremeProgramming this is present in the use of
PairProgramming. Experience has shown that a
SecondSetOfEyes often discovers very quickly the faults and shortcomings of a
ProducedArtifact. Particularly useful, the
SharingOfWork allows the production of artifacts larger, more complete, and composed in a far more complex form, than that possible by a
SoloWorker.
It might be said that with the
SharingOfWork, Civilization began. When one has proceeded far enough up the
NeedsTriangle, one can begin to produce artifacts for community or social use.
It is also one of the basic tenets of the Wiki, that the page (
ProducedArtifact) is improved, extended via Edits, Forward and
BackLinks, and by deletion and correction into becoming a
UsefulArtifact.
