Unit 2 Wiki's

What are the similarities and differences between a blog and a wiki?
Some of the similarities are you can post info and see what other people like and dislike. Some of the differences are that many people can own a wiki, also you can make changes , but in a blog you can't since only one person own's it.

Discuss your experiences starting a wiki. What did you have problems with, what seemed easy, etc. Make sure you add a link to your wiki.
When I first started making a wiki it was kind of complicated, because the internet kept dragging and I couldn't find the tabs to edit the page. After that it got really easy since my teacher explained everything very well. What seemed easy was posting info about you.
Here is the link to my wiki. http://lynxpitcher33.wikispaces.com/
