#16

The wikis are very interesting and I think out of the 5 suggested ones in our assignment, my favorite two were the The Bull Run Library wiki and the Book Lovers Wiki. Both were very..."human interest", I guess is what I liked about them.

My main concern about wikis in a research aspect would be that - as I understood it -- anyone can go in and edit them. I think that is problematic because (1) it would just add to the overwhelming amount of information out there and (2) you could never quite be sure that you were getting accurate information.
