Thing 16

Wiki
It was fun learning about the origin of the meaning of wiki. My first thoughts about wikis were the problems of reliability and accuracy. But, the example of the camping trip made me start to think about uses that don't necessarily require accuracy such as a family wiki site. I found a fun one for students
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wikijunior where young people can write and edit books. This is truly a collaborated effort.
