2.0 assignments #16 and 17 Wiki due may 26

I have reviewed the information about how to set up, use and edit a Wiki. We have using a Wiki for several months now in public services and it seems to work well for sharing information with each other. It is a democratic venue with anyone being able to edit and add to it.
There were many different examples of how Wiki's are used in academic, public and special conference settings such as ALA. I liked the subject guide listing at the St. Joseph County Public Library system. We used to have something similiar that people could click on favorite or well-used sites and go directly to them. I think that would still be useful to have but it takes maintenance and that means someone has to have and take the time to make sure it is updated.
I added my blog to the favorites and vacation spots at the university.
