 The Wiki Space

Amongst the internet, there are various wiki spaces for people of all fields to discover and join; a wiki is a site that allows the users to freely edit or change content as needed. I will be addressing several wiki spaces and how they can benefit users based on their website format and ability to allow groups to edit content and share content. On an educational format, or a more business perspective.

 

TiddlyWiki (https://tiddlywiki.com/)

TiddlyWiki is a wiki site that allows you to create a notebook of sorts, for organizing your information, either for personal or educational means. It seems more so for a teacher than a student, but someone busy enough could find a way to make use of an organizer at any point. The site has a face with the latest updates and features, allowing you to sort of link directly to the post when they did it, providing more info to those who need it. Due to the open-source format, anyone can upload a community resources/plug-in to increase your efficiency in the app. Or at creating concept maps and creating graphs.

Weebly (https://education.weebly.com/ed-features.php)

Weebly is a more education-based Wiki; you can create classrooms and student portfolios. The website boasts its protection of websites, student activity, multimedia features, and flexible features. Along with it being a free source that any teacher can use in the classroom. Your website's customization is at your fingertips, with the incredibly high number of designs they have for your domain. They show off the reliable servers they currently hold for hosting your website(s).  

Wikidot(https://www.wikidot.com/more:explore-features)

Wikidot is quite like TiddlyWiki; it offers safety in database protection and goes for a more professional look for your wiki space/website, whilst allowing hosting directly from them and controlling your website. It seems to be for a more professional setting and less of an educational viewpoint on the website, but it can still be useful depending on what you are looking for. So while TiddlyWiki and Wikidot offer a more professional or educational route to making a wiki space, Weebly offers something more for a teaching environment and will probably be more advisable in a classroom setting.

  Fighting Malware When you browse the web, you can sometimes download harmful files, sometimes on purpose, other times it could be an accident or even a forced unseen download. So you’ll want the best protection you can get. Sometimes your Operating System or browser can come with security already built inside of it, but it doesn’t always clean up everything. You’ll need to find an antivirus tool or a malware protector/finder; some known tools are Malware Bytes and the IObit Malware Protections, but some of these costs a year or up to a packaged bundle that usually runs quite cheap for a year (30.00+ USD) But the benefits of a paid subscription usually outpace that of a non-paid subscription. ClamWin is an Antivirus open source software that can be used completely free, you’ll never have to pay, but you maybe missing out on dozens of benefits from using a trial/free version of the paid versions of known antivirus software. And open-source antivirus software are usually rarely upda

 Summary 2 Sally’s Baking Addiction, a blog known for giving advice and sharing information on creating your favorite foods at home, allowing those who arrive to sometimes come away with better baking knowledge and make an item less sugary or healthier to eat. As baking blogs provide detailed ingredients and baking times for you to keep down for, make your own dessert in a seamless routine. The layout Sally’s has, allows you to see her interpretation of a popular cookie recipe (Oreo) before you get well into attempting it. But sight is only one of the human senses; the taste is another one. Once you are towards the bottom of any of the recipes, you are greeted with a brief description, instructions, ingredients needed, and how long it will take your average person to develop this recipe. Having comments enabled allows a third party to also get engaged with the creator, provide tips and improvements, and share whether or not you agreed with the steps and ingredients put towards the reci
