Well...todays lesson was a bit of a knock. As a group, we had decided to do our group wiki based on online dating, a great idea we thought. But after having discussed this with Nigel, it seemed that we couldnot develop the idea further.
Nigel suggested that we first establish the idea of a community, rather than thinking of a website and try and derieve an idea from this. As a group we believed a community was:
1. Involving interaction (having more than one person)
2. Religion
3. Common interests
4. Location etc...
Having established this we came up with the idea of 'Fandom' and 'Forums'.....and to see how easy it can be to be accepted into a community. We will do this by each joining a forum of our choice and see how easy we interact, comments made..and try to work our way up the chain. A great book for this is "Tune In, log in: Soaps, forum & online communities" which will be one of the core readings for our project.
