12th Thing

I just finishing reading and exploring about Wikis. It was very interesting. It's almost like IM. I tried to edit a wiki but I couldn't and so after several tries I gave up. I will try again.
I do understand wikis by thinking of Wikipedia, I can see how wikis can turn into something much bigger and beneficial as time goes by and content grows. I didn't like the fact that you could be registered or unregistered. I think, like all other websites, you should be registered or have an account at least where you can have your account suspended, privileges taken, or expelled from the website if you're using the wiki as a sick sense of humor or just plain mean.
I do think that wikis are relevant, helpful,in libraries, schools, or comunicating with others with the same interests. I like Book Lovers Wiki and you can pick the genres of your book reviews from fantasy to the classics. Wikis like this would be helpful to students as well as media specialists who just want a good book. Another good wiki idea would be "If you enjoyed reading this you would also like reading this". I joined Library Thing "Reading YA Literature" where I can find people with similar tastes in YA books.
