Wikis in Plain English

As if they were paying attention, CommonCraft has produced another video to help explain the world of Web 2.0. I often link to Wikipedia in my posts, but there might not be a lot of people who know how it works. Better yet, there are some out there who don’t know that you can apply the same functionality that they use on that site, called Wikis (creative, huh?), to nearly any site that you want to.

Curious to learn more? Watch this video.

  1. Wikis rock. If you want to see a non-encyclopedia-based one in action, check out Rustbelt Radio’s wiki at http://wiki.indypgh.org/. Since IndyMedia-and thus Rustbelt-is not a group of individuals with assigned tasks but rather an unregulated collective of independently-acting people, there’s no central authority to creat a script. So we do it via wiki. It makes things interesting to say the least.
