Wednesday, August 1, 2007About This BlikiWow, a crossover between a blog and a wiki? I just started a private blog a few months ago to get in the habit . . . and this just looked like the perfect medium to get people involved. Is Web 2.0 a flash in the pan? and is it the coolest thing ever for classical musicians? Can I even figure this thing out? What this is, is a combination of a blog and a wiki, which is a set of interrelated and interlinked articles, much like Wikipedia. Parts of this site are a blog, and relate to each other in the sense that they are chronologically-based postings. Part of this site is a wiki, with factual articles and no dates in the titles. The two can interact in that a wiki page can reference a blog post, a blog post can reference another blog post or wiki page, and so on. The other difference between this and a blog is that there are multiple authors and editors, just as in Wikipedia. I encourage regular articles and blog posts from all responsible contributors, with the proviso that I am the final judge about what is suitable material for this site. Every item on this site may be edited, assuming I've given you permission to do so. So, you can: write an article; edit your own or someone else's article; write a blog post; edit your own or someone else's blog post; write a comment; edit your own or someone else's comment; add or modify a gallery page; add or modify a map; request a page, post, feature, keyword, etc.; and many, many other things. This is intended to be a group project about classical music. Author: Cynthia Wunsch |
