This is topic My Wiki - Wow! I'm now the owner of an invisible pink Hummer. How'd that happen? in forum Books, Films, Food and Culture at Hatrack River Forum.
I was given an assignment to learn about wikis in a course I'm taking. The course is called "teaching with Technology" and it's part of my masters program.
So I created a wiki, but it seems everybody in my class is afraid to edit it. Well we just can't have that. I'm sure there are people here who would just love to get in there and mess with it.
The idea came from the icebreaker game "Two Truths and a Lie" where you go around the room and everybody says three things about themselves, only two of which are true.
So I posted two truths and a lie about myself, and I invite you to change them, embellish them, create stories, puns, etc. The rest of the page is up fro grabs too. Just remember it's for my class, so keep it clean and civil.

It says you're in the middle of editing it yourself. I could steal your edit lock, but you'd lose the changes you are making... Posted by Glenn Arnold (Member # 3192) on :
I don't know why it says that. Go ahead and steal the lock.
Posted by Boon (Member # 4646) on :
Hehehe. That's fun.

Great! Now I'll have to have a wiki, too.
Posted by Glenn Arnold (Member # 3192) on :
Hey! That's more better! This is what I was looking for. It's kind of like a threaded discussion, except more compact.
I got the picture of the rat on the page. That's cute.

This is a fun idea.

Question: Who changed the background to all white? And how'd you do it?
Riding a unicorn works your core abdominals? I don't want to think about it.
Posted by SoaPiNuReYe (Member # 9144) on :
Obviously the unicorn statement is a lie, which makes the first statement all the more disturbing...

But it's hard to find fingernails in industrial quantities.

now you have a chauffeur.

Wikis are fun. I added a few pages.
Posted by MightyCow (Member # 9253) on :
I sure didn't edit that.
Posted by Glenn Arnold (Member # 3192) on :
MC: are you referring to Chuck Norris, or world domination? Or have I missed something? I must say it's a little weird, but we can always just edit it right back.

[OT] Glenn, did you see the NY thread? [/OT]
Posted by starLisa (Member # 8384) on :
I'm just wondering how you know it's pink. I mean, if it's invisible and all.
Posted by MightyCow (Member # 9253) on :
How can you edit out the world domination? I have a seat in the House of Lords in Swankvania, and if we don't have a new Overlord in the next two weeks, someone's in big trouble!
Posted by Glenn Arnold (Member # 3192) on :
Rivka: Umm. No...
Lisa: That would be a reference to the IPU. (invisible pink unicorn)
