For my project, I of course had to make some edits. I added a couple of new pages, resized the pictures, edited some of the text, edited the links on the side bar, and resized some of the text to make it the same. I really think this project was beneficial to me. It was something I had no experience with and wouldn't have done if not for this class. No offense to the blogger people in the class, but I think making a wiki is more challenging and creative than a blog, which is something we all have experience with already. I think I could have easily done a blog on my topic and done fine, but I'm glad I picked the wiki because it is different and taught me about a valuable topic that can only grow in importance in the future. I think if I had to do it over again, I would use a different site than PBWiki just to experience what is different, though PBWiki was very good to me. I have to admit there were times where I wanted to pull my hair out over this and times when I doubted my ability to do a good job. But now I think that this is good and I am proud of it and what I learned from it and tired from all the time spent on it.
This class was very beneficial to me because I had never heard of Web 2.0 before coming in. I found out just how much I already used it but knew nothing about what I was using. I used to use Xanga for a short time in high school, so I knew about blogging a bit but the wiki was new. I didn't even realize I was able to edit Wikipedia before I took this course. I was really looking forward to learning how web 2.0 is going to change in the future, but now I realize we must wait and see for ourselves. I think my favorite part of the class was reading other people's blogs because it is always fun to know what other people are thinking.

I tried to view your wiki and it said I didn't have access to it. Is it set to private?? Anyhoo I totally agree with you when it comes to wikis. I had no knowledge of how to use it and it was very challenging but some how I got through it. I will have to check back and get some tips on how to get in shape for the summer LOL!!
