For Exercise 16
Ever since the appearance of Wikipedia, it has became one of my handy tools in getting factual information of historical events, movies, celebrities and books and their authors. I prefer to search information from Wikipedia over other kind of website, because of its one-at-a-glance plain page design, without the hassle to click many buttons and jump from page to page.
For those who have limited skills in webpage design, a Wiki is an easy and convenience way to use it for simple publishing and to be shared among a community. The basic design of a Wiki is somewhat like the text version of a webpage. With reference to the BookLoversWiki of Princeton Public Library, a little bit design is added to the interface which made it more appealing.
I'm surprised to discover that Wiki could be used as an event page, like the 2009 ALA Annual Conference. The way the conference detailed are presented is convenience to its members to skip for those information which they need with the topic words stated, without the need to read everything. For the libraries, I think it will be useful for the posting of library courses.
