Bonjour!

Hello fellow followers of Dr. Jones' Internet and Technology class! That was some storm, huh? It's nice to get back to our regular schedules, isn't it?

I don't have a lot of knowledge to contribute here on the outset of our information journey, so I look forward to learning from this class. I have a few blogs and I use Wikipedia, but that's the extent of my Web 2.0 knowledge. Feel free to share your knowledge and opinions with me.

Things I've learned so far
--------------------------
What Web 2.0 is
That Wiki is a type of information-sharing system and not just a shortened term for Wikipedia
That all this technology stuff can be used not just in class, but outside of class to suppliment
That students can contribute to a class blog/wiki/etc too and will learn more if they do
That dissertations are really long and people give you dirty looks if you print them in the main lab

Question: How are we going to make up for the lost 2.5 hours of class?

    I like your list of things you've learned so far. My list is pretty much the same. I guess I would add that overall I'm technologically incompetent, thus I'm looking forward to learning a lot from this class.

    I was also wondering about the missed class time...

    Hi, Well...I'm hoping that some, as some have done, have added posts to the wiki...and that has happened; we'll talk about it a bit tonight...and some of you have gotten your blogs going, which we would have discussed last week, hurrah, and so on... You're doing a lot of what we would have done already!! Hurrah! But what about your topic of reconciliation?
