Wonderfully-easy Wikis

Once again, I am absolutely shocked at how much easier another Web 2.0 assignment was than I thought it would be!! Before I created my wiki for this class, I used to (any guesses?) panic a little at the thought of having to set one up on my own. And yet (once again) it proved extremely beneficial that Anne is helping me step outside of my comfort box.

I REALLY enjoyed the Common Craft video explaining "Wikis in Plain English." There was definitely no false advertising in the title--everything was spelled out in plain English. Just seeing that video was enough to make me relax and even be excited about creating my own wiki. I'm really glad I thought to look at our Learning 2.0 blog before trying to set up my wiki. I obviously hadn't done this step already when I created my wiki (since the assignment was due yesterday=), but this week's assignment still helped me. The ease of creating my wiki assignment has made me sure that I'll create several more wikis in the future. I'm already considering setting one up for a writing club my friend and I are going to start over the summer!
