3rd Comment on Class Material

In class on Wednesday we discussed how it is important for companies to keep up with what is written on wikipedia about them. I thought this was a really good point since most people do go on wikipedia these days to look things up on a certain topic. I don't think companies put enough emphasis on the web and certain things such as creating a wikipedia article or blog are put on the back burner and are not looked at as a necessity. In the emerging IT world, it is an absolute necessity and the faster companies learn this-the better off they'll be.

10th Wikipedia Post

I added in my third wikipedia edit on The Warped Tour last night. The edit I made stated that: "The Warped Tour also benefits up-and-coming bands and those looking to gain more recognition. The tour provides a direct market in order for these bands to obtain or extend their fan base. The bands can set up tent areas and are able to talk with those atteding the tour and sell their merchandise as well as give away promotional freebies." I thought I should add this fact in since it is another benefit to attend the tour, for bands as well as spectators.

9th Wikipedia Post

I completed another wikipedia edit today on Long Beach Island. In the article, I added some activities that vacationers can participate in when they visit the island. Check it out by clicking on the link above.

8th Wikipedia Post

On the Southern Regional School District article I added in the fact that the middle school and high school are located right next to each other. I thought it was a good idea to add that in, just in case people were confused about where each school was located. There are many shcools located in my area and I know it can be very confusing for visitors.

7th Wikipedia Post

I just made an edit to The Warped Tour article on wikipedia. I just editted in the fact that most bands will retreat back to their own specified tent in order to sign autographs, meet and talk to the fans, and take photos. It's a great perk in attending The Warped Tour since die-hard fans will most likely be able to come into contact with their favorite band(s).

Stiuqxela Experiment

Our class is conducting an experiment on the keyword, "stiuqxela", to see whether or not it will form a linkage to the Green Bay Packers and come up as a result after doing a keyword search on Google. We will be conducting this search engine experiment for the remainder of the semester. Click and check it out: stiuqxela

6th Wikipedia Edit

I just completed my sixth edit on Wikipedia on the Surf Culture article. The first paragraph of the article had some grammatical errors in it and was pretty boring so I added a couple things- click here and check it out!

5th Wikipedia Edit

I just completed another wikipedia edit on The Warped Tour. Within the article I added that the individual band times and stages where each band play is marked on a large board usually centered in the middle of the venue. People who attend The Warped Tour for the first time are usually confused about which band plays when and where so I thought it would be a good idea to add that fact in the article. So anyone interested in attending The Warped Tour check out the link above!
