We made this video because wiki web sites are easy to use, but hard to describe. We hope to turn you on to a better way to plan a camping trip, or create the next Wikipedia.
These four friends are going on a camping trip.
00:00:00
They need to bring the right supplies because they're backpacking.
00:00:07
The group needs to plan and plan well, so coordination is key.
00:00:10
They're all computer users, so they start planning with an email.
00:00:14
It starts with one, but then becomes a barrage.
00:00:17
Email is not good at coordinating and organizing a group's input.
00:00:20
This is the old way.
00:00:25
Boo!
00:00:27
The important information is scattered across everyone's inbox.
00:00:29
This isn't coordination.
00:00:32
Let's start over.
00:00:34
There is a better way.
00:00:35
It requires using a website called a wiki.
00:00:37
Using a wiki, the group can coordinate their trip better.
00:00:40
This is the new way.
00:00:44
Yay!
00:00:46
Most wikis work the same.
00:00:48
They make it easy for everyone to change what appears on a web page with the click of a button.
00:00:50
It's as easy as erasing a word and rewriting it.
00:00:55
The buttons are really important.
00:00:58
There are two that are essential.
00:01:00
They are edit and save, and they are always used together.
00:01:02
Let's see them in action.
00:01:06
Here are our camping friends, and this is a wiki website.
00:01:08
Like all wikis, it has an edit button.
00:01:11
Clicking this button transforms the web page into a document.
00:01:14
All you have to do is click it, and the web page becomes a document ready for editing.
00:01:17
Editing the page means you can add or remove words or change how they look,
00:01:22
just like writing a letter.
00:01:26
Once you're finished editing, you click save, and the document becomes a web page once again
00:01:28
and is ready for the next person to edit it.
00:01:34
Easy.
00:01:36
Edit, write, and save.
00:01:37
Using this process, a group can coordinate more easily.
00:01:39
Let's apply this to our camping friends who need to bring the right supplies.
00:01:42
Mary signs up for a wiki site and then sees the new site for the first time.
00:01:46
She clicks the edit button to get started.
00:01:51
She creates two lists for camping, what we have and what we need.
00:01:53
Under we have, she lists the things she will bring, a cooler, stove, and flashlight.
00:01:57
Under we need, she lists items that others need to bring, compass, lighter, water, and food.
00:02:02
She finishes the process by clicking save, and the website now has lists for the camping trip.
00:02:07
Now it's John's turn.
00:02:12
John visits the wiki website, clicks edit, and the page becomes a document ready for him to make changes.
00:02:14
John volunteers to bring food and water, so he moves those to the have column.
00:02:20
He also realizes the group will need a knife and rope.
00:02:24
Once he's finished, he clicks save, and the wiki is ready for the next person.
00:02:26
Henry visits the wiki, clicks edit, and he can edit the page.
00:02:30
He remembers they need a tent.
00:02:35
Henry saves the page, and the wiki is ready for Frank.
00:02:37
Frank edits the page and agrees to bring the remaining items, completing the process.
00:02:41
Frank saves the page and realizes something awesome.
00:02:46
The group has created the perfect camping list, without email. Yay!
00:02:49
But wait, one thing is missing.
00:02:54
They need a location for the campsite.
00:02:56
The wiki can help with this too, but another page is needed.
00:02:58
John visits the wiki and clicks edit to edit the page.
00:03:01
He types in the word locations and highlights it.
00:03:05
He then clicks the link button.
00:03:08
This changes the word locations into a link to a new page.
00:03:10
John clicks save and next, Frank visits the wiki and sees the list and the link to the new page.
00:03:14
He clicks on the locations link and arrives at the new page.
00:03:20
This new page enables the group to use the same edit-write-save process to coordinate locations.
00:03:23
This process can be repeated over and over.
00:03:30
These three buttons, edit, save, and link, make it possible to organize a great camping trip
00:03:33
or create the world's biggest encyclopedia.
00:03:39
You can sign up for your own wiki at these websites, pbwiki, wetpaint, or wikispaces.
