Wiki Basket

So anyway, I have now read about wiki's and what they are. I also learned that it's Hawaiian for quick. Why Hawaiian? Well I looked that up on wikipedia.

I typed 'Wikipedia' into Wikipedia and as I eagerly awaited the answer with Isaac by my side the computer suddenly blew up and it turns out I found out the hard way that you should never type wikipedia into wikipedia or, just the same, not to type google into google. YOU WILL BREAK THE INTERNET!

Now I have just tried to enter that last paragraph into the wikipedia article but it's locked so I can't. Have I learnt nothing? You bet i haven't (that's a double negative).

Wiki's could be useful in libraries as a way of updating information about the library, people's experiences with it or just plain old book reviewing. Yay! Wiki's can also be useful when being apart of learning about web 2.0 and the possibility of winning a laptop. Wink, Wink moderators.
