Overall, I've had a pretty good experience with using the Wiki page. Surprisingly enough, before this week, I've rarely even visited a wiki, even wikipedia. I was extrememly nervous about learning how to develop this, but once I dove into it, I really thought of it as web-development with a twist. The part that I really enjoyed about this project, was the "Group" part of it. When I first read that we had a group project, I was really nervous that it wouldn't come together in the end, because of varied shedules, inability to meet with one-another, etc. Boy was I wrong. I thought that our group did a fantastic job of regular "meetings", on-time performance, and creativity. I will definately use this type of web-application in the future to promote group-type work. It can really be tailored vastly for this purpose, and is an excellent tool.
After reading the Web 2.0 article, my viewpoint on technology has definately been altered a bit. I'll be the first to admit that I no idea of the scope of many technologies, and how many technology-related softwares / programs / develompents have had a huge impact on various industries, i.e. web service stacks, etc. The process of researching the various parts of the Web 2.0 article was very enlightening from both a technical, and theoretical standpoint.

Thanks Steve! I thought our group did a marvelous job also. And I feel like I made two new friends in the process.
Steve,
Couldn't agree more the group aspect of this class was still intact even though you may never meet the people you are in a group with. I think the wiki page is a great tool and should be used for all group classwork.
