Week 7

16.

Had a look at Wiki websites and I know it's not going to be something that I'll use. There seemed to be a few pros and cons regarding this type of communication and learning. It may be easy to use and web based but you could be getting information that you'd probably have to check anyway. Why not Google it? It's also too open, as someone said "I don't want someone changing my writing" or even from Sir Tim Berner's-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web “Even the clearest, cleverest and most comprehensive website cannot hope to equal the wealth of information contained in a good reference book. The internet is most definitely not a substitute for a well-stocked public library.” I like that.
