What did you find interesting about the wiki concept?
I definetly like how easy it is to change things, before this 'Thing' I only knew of WikiHow and Wikipidea. I think that this was really interesting because I never knew much about them, I actually never knew you could create your own. So when I watched the video and realized I could use a wiki for my personal use I thought it would be interesting.
What types of applications within schools and professional organizations might work well with a wiki?
I think that a professional organization could use a wiki when they are planning a business trip and they need to share information. I also think that schools could use them as a research source, IF it was somehow checked to make reliable.
Many teachers/faculty 'ban' Wikipedia as a source for student research. What do you think of the practice of limiting information by format?
I think that it should be allowed, but on certain understanding terms. For example, if I can't find any information on my research topic and I find some information on a Wiki, I feel like I should be able to use it. I guess everyone should use their own judgement and be reasonable. Idk, I guess it's a touchy topic because I see both sides of the issue.
Which wiki did you edit?
I decided to edit 'http://www.wikihow.com/Survive-a-Freestyle-Rap-Battle#Steps' in this WikiHow I added ' *Note- Some rapper's don't write everything down, they keep everything in their head so that they can only talk about what's 'real'. For example Dwayne Carter bka Lil Wayne'.
Led Zeppelin II, Led Zeppelin IV or Physical Graffiti and why?
I'm 19 and have no idea of who you're talking about. But my mom say's their a band. I'm pretty sure I've heard of them..maybe.
