Boom Shaka Wiki Wiki! - Episode 34

What a wiki-wonderful show! Since most of our Coop Crew was unfamiliar with the world of wiki, it was lots of fun introducing them. For those of you who aren't wiki aware, a wiki is a website that can be edited by anyone who accesses it. Unlike a blog where you can comment on something somebody else wrote, on a wiki you can actually revise what somebody else wrote. There are plenty of pros and cons to wikis on the web, most notably the integrity of the information. Since anybody can write an article and anybody else can edit it, who's to say what's accurate and what's not? As of now, we depend on the wiki community to police it's own. If you're a member of a wiki community, we'd love to hear from you.

You can read a copy of our Show Notes to get more information on our discussion. We also include a website of the week, tip of the week and cool tool of the week. If you have comments about this week's show or suggestions for future topics, just leave your comments on this blog. We'd especially like to hear about your favorite wiki websites!

Thank you from Jonathan, and myself for the opportunity to enter and WIN the Aviator. Greg Bright emailed me to ask if Jonathan would mind providing him feedback on how the Aviator assisted him while using his laptop. He also asked if Jonathan would mind contributing to his continued ergonomic study. I printed the email for my son. He said he'd be glad to. 2SmartChix is a great resource of information. Those of you that have not joined the program live are truly missing out on a great opportunity. Thank you again to 2SmartChix!
