#16 - Join the Wiki collective
In today's lesson you'll get to join the collective.Okay, not the collective (that's the last Borg joke I'll make, promise), but the Learning 2.0 collective - you'll get to add content to the Learning 2.0 Wiki.Wikis, as we've already discussed, come in many shapes and sizes. Still another variation in the world of wikis is where your wiki lives - you can install wiki software on a server at your institution (like what we do with our website and email) or you can use a service that hosts the wiki for you. For today's exercise, we'll be doing the later - our Learning 2.0 wiki was set up with a service called PB Wiki.Which is why you should take their quick quick PB Wiki Tour (this will open in a separate window). They'll detail the service and fill you in on a number of intersting ways to use wikis - keep clicking on the 'next' button to get to the next screen. Once you run out of 'next' buttons, you've come to the end of the tour.We're moving quickly today - we're already up to today's Discovery Exercise where you'll become a contributer to the Learning 2.0 Wiki.
Head over to the Learning 2.0 Wiki (link will open in a separate window).
Read the main page and follow instructions for making your way to the 'best blogs ever' wiki page.
Add your blog to the 'best blogs ever' wiki page - instructions will be at the top of the page. Make sure you include your blogging name in the appropriate space so that we know it was youAnd you're done - thanks for becoming a Learning 2.0 wiki contributor.Up next: play and catch up...

an Update on MySpace Friends and Email Verification
A number of you have reported problems with the MySpace friending process. You'll be asked to verify your email, you try, but it doesn't work.The problem, I fear, lies with MySpace - you are doing nothing wrong.If this is happening to you, please don't worry about it. Give it another try later in the week but, should you continue to get the cold shoulder from MySpace, consider lesson #11 complete. Just make sure you do two things when you submit your Week #5 progress log: leave a checkmark next to the 'friend' box (#11) and enter your MySpace URL in the appropriate slot (so that we know you really are our 'friend').
