What I didn't know about Wiki...

From watching the videos about Wikipedia, I found out some interesting stuff. For instance, anyone can go on wiki and give his or her opinion, which is kind of crazy because when people comment on things and give their opinions things turn ugly. However, in wiki, people do not do that. They want to read about your opinion and see how you view a certain top. Another thing I like about it is that you do not need to sign up to anything to edit something. It is as simple as 1.2.3. All you have to do is click edit and save. Their aren't any nasty comments nor do you have to put your personal information in. When I was in high school my teachers hated wiki, but really it is a conversation on a subject to an audience. Doesn't that sound like the communications triangle? And how do you learn to write? By writing, and how do you write to learn? By writing for yourself then learning the language and learning how to write more formally.And to that, wiki allows you to do those things. Its pretty cool looking at it in that way.
