Wikis

I previously knew nothing about Wikis, so I was a blank canvas. I must say that I was very overwhelmed with the idea until I watched the Common Craft video. I guess you could say they really "dumbed it down" for me. They used a practical application that anyone would be able to use them for and then, I could see instances in which they might be beneficial to me. Who knows, maybe one day in the near future I might use this new knowledge to create a Wiki for a project.

I can also see that Wikis would be beneficial to libraries when several people need to collaborate together to organize an event or ideas. When many people are involved in a task that needs organization, this would be faster than using e-mails making everyone involved more efficient.

Now I feel like I must personalize my blog since I am getting so technology savvy so here is a song that I am really into right now from the movie Twilight.
