There are so many different ways of doing the same things on the web. It can be pretty frustrating for someone like me - someone who does not really care too much about being interactive within the web. It confuses me and makes me wonder why we need quite so much technology within the internet. I suppose that each aspect of Web 2.0 can be compared to specific ways of life. Some ways of life fit some, while other ways of life fit others. Some ways of doing things on the internet may be easier or slightly more suitable for the user and their purpose or goal.
Before reading about wiki's, my main questions about them were "Why do we need wikis? What is the difference between a webpage, a wiki, and a blog?" I learned that anyone can edit or add to a wiki. The only problem I can see with that is that anyone can post false information. The only solution to that is if they are caught and someone reposts the correct information. It would make sense that after more than a few false posts, the user be removed from the wiki's members.
Tell me about it. I've just started a new online business and it does my head in sometimes. The internet is a whole differnt world. I'm not computer minded but I'm learning fast.
