Features I should look into using more
- Blueprints
- Page layout - I should think about how the different layouts might be useful. I suppose the three-column layout could be helpful for kanban...
- Tables
- Task lists - I could see myself using this for Rhymecraft, WhatDo, and any other project I want to keep on top of.
- Emoticons - There are actually some useful emoticons in there: a green check-mark, a red square with an 'X' in it, a blue circle with a question mark in it, a hazard sign, and different-colored stars.
- There's a converter for Markdown that'll paste in the converted HTML.
- Horizontal rules.
- You can have a Trello board on a page by providing the URL.
- Macros
...
- Administration
- Why don't I see anything in this category?
- Communication
- I only see the "IM Presence", which I suppose could be helpful for pages where you collaborate with a particular group of people.
- Confluence content
- Create from template
- Excerpt Include
- Include Page: Includes the contents of a page within another. <-- I could see this being very helpful for keeping stuff organized...
- Status - Communicate the status of a project, task or milestone with visual indicators.
- Task report - Create a report of tasks from specific locations, people, status and more.
- Development
- The most-interesting one I see is the Jira macro for listing relevant Jira tickets, but I'm not really using Jira right now.
- External content
- Activity Stream - This might be helpful for making it clear to visitors that this wiki is being actively worked on.
- TODO: Keep going through this.
- Formatting
- Highlight
- Iframe
- Info
- Note
- Panel
- Tip
- Warning
- Media

- Navigation
- You can create an anchor.
- Page tree search
- Page index
- Navigation map
- Search results
- Reporting:
- The Page Properties / Page Properties Report macros. I could see that being used to aggregate information on many different pages that track my progress on various dimensions, so I can have a dashboard-style page where I can see everything at once.
