I liked the video on Diigo about the camping trip wiki! I thought that was a neat idea, since I have been in situations where lists needed to be completed and there was so much confusion that they never were fulfilled. I found it was very easy to get into APSU sandbox and add what I wanted to the page. I added my Thing #6 about Web 2.0 tools, mine was Pandora, because I feel it is a good thing to have in the classroom to increase creativity levels, and there is music to go along with just about any books time period.
I really wish I had more time to make my own wiki, because my friends and I are in the process of planning a baby shower and we all live in different places, so it is hard to figure out who is doing what! The only down fall that I have, is that ANYONE can sign up and edit your pages, potentially deleting important information, or posting incorrect information. Also it is hard to have a leader of the group since everyone can make as many changes as anyone else, and I usually like to take charge with planning. I'm sure if you were using for a classroom setting though, it would be important that the teacher does show some leadership so the editing doesn't get out of hand and the students wouldn't misuse the wikis.
