BLOG: Blog v Wiki

There are some similarities between Blogs and Wiki and there are also some differences between these two. According to Wooster, one difference between these two is that Wiki is more of a collaboration type of post. It is for team support and having a team to create a wide knowledge base. Everyone can contribute to this web page. And anyone can edit or change this web base without the consent from the domain owners. Where else for Blogs, it is more of personal webpages. Where only the domain owners can edit and post different material to this web page. It provides limited collaboration. Also with a reverse chronological format. One of the similarities between Blogs and Wiki is that both are able to post different material for others to see. 

It is convergence is extremely important in today's network because of the consumer's experiences. The consumer wanted every platform to exist in one domain because it is more convenient to use. No one wants to comment or watching a video in a separate platform, many people all wanted to exist in the same platform. It is more time-saving for consumers. 

According to the article "7 Ways to Collaborate with Other Bloggers" by Growth Marketer, one of the way for the bloggers to collaborate is to do group projects. Where all the bloggers get together and decide on a project to perform. Like an eBook, then everyone produces their unique content then editors will fit all the content together. And all bloggers will promote that eBook on their website. 

One way that I can think of is to create a game in the wiki. Like all the programmer come together and use wiki as a platform to code and use that code to create a stable game for any users to play on.
