Wikipedia

Well, I have to say I never knew that Wikipedia was an encyclopedia for users to edit and create. You would think that it would mess them up; having all sorts of mislead information and wrong pages, but there must me these little people that sit around and constantly check and edit pages. The other day when I was adding some terms, I had added Koobface, well needless to say they did not like it! It was immediately deleted. So how many people are really behind their computers constantly checking the Wiki sites... I would love to know.

The only thing I had a little time figuring out was adding eternal links, I just couldn't get it. I should have done the link tutorial before I changed the Web 2.0 page. But hey it is a learning experience right? It did help by creating a profile and a page for myself, didn't really have much to say about myself since I am not in education and done a lot of fancy stuff like the rest of you but i did add a few things.

Overall I have learned so much by doing edits on Wikipedia, Wiktionary, and Wikiversity. What a great concept and a way to get great information from people for free! Who's great idea was that!
