The Twenty Third Thing


Well I think I have completed the web 2.0 programme. It has been truly entertaining and engrossing. I am delighted so many colleagues got into it.
Key learning outcomes for me? Confirmation that I am an I.T. plodder. I work at it. I get there. I am not a natural. Although I have an open, critical mind and can see applications and potential in the technology I struggle with.

Some of the downside revolves around artificial limitations to the potential of this technology. Imposed firewalls, regulation based on suspected messing about - that sort of thing. Plus the reasonable caution required for security reasons.

Also, the endless signing up with all the associated passwords and etc, plus the inherent spam and etc risks that come with this.

Wikis in particular are the going thing, and all the bits and bobs around web 2.0 are the stuff that makes a good wiki. I am looking forward to getting stuck into developing training wikis.

Regards and thanks, Lovegod

Web 2.0 awards, hosted wikis category. Almost a review

Wetpaint was the winner in this category. The promotional push for this product is ease of use. The claim is for 500,000 wetpaint wiki sites. I am going to make it 500,001.
Done. It was very easy. The blog is Nemesis of Tower Of Blog. I am not surprised to see that my blog comes heavy with ads. For this reason, Blogger suits me better.
