WIKI: Where Information Keeps Interacting

I relly enjoyed our class discussion on Monday. One part of the discussion in particular, involving design principles behind the creation of wikis and blogs, their unique purpose and corresponding audience, reminded me of a similar conversation sparked by students in TC 510 (Information Design). The interaction of information that occurs on Wikis is truly amazing and would probably not occur in the absence of that medium; the same can be said about blogs. Wikis promote collaboration in the form of an online workspace by giving users the power to create new and change existing content. Potential challenges and "competitive natures" could arise when individual egos resist the notion of being "corrected" by others. Only those who are wise enough to correct yet humble enough to be corrected will survive the place in space "where information keeps on interacting"....the place known as WIKI.
