Week 5: Wikis and Widgets

Before this week, all I knew about wikis was Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia. But there are lots of other wikis out there. Wikis enable people to contribute to the internet and put their opinions, stories and information out there. And you guessed it, I found http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Doctor_Who_Wiki.
The major problem with wikis (from my perspective) is that you get inaccurate information and bad spelling on wikis! But that is a fundamental part of Web 2.0; you, the user, are sharing with other users, it is your content. We just have to be aware when we are looking at wikis that they can be set up by anyone and that any information presented should be verified with other sources.

Widgets are FUN!
