Wikipedia – What Leads To Wikipedia’s Quality Our task was to answer the question – “What leads to Wikipedia’s quality?”, knowing that Wikipedia is also a collaborative project on the internet We had to learn how to create our own Wikipedia account and how to create our own original article on Wikipedia The Wikipedia article we’ve created was based on something we considered ourselves an “expert” on The article I created was about nHancer, an advanced control panel and profile editor for NVIDIA graphics cards

In this project, we needed to make another collaboration via the built-in Wiki on our Kalayaan class website We responded by collaborating on a Web Technologies Wiki and by enumerating some of the web technologies we know We identified what kind of web technologies are present in Web 2.0, and these web technologies involved web applications that feature information sharing and collaboration

15. Fourth Project: Making Our First Facebook Application 4th Project

16. Making Our First Facebook Application Our task was to create our very own Facebook application We were given a 5-minute tutorial on how to create a Facebook app by using a web server I wasn’t able to actually make a Facebook app because I had a difficult time understanding how to use a web server Due to this, I just used Facebook’s built-in application builder in order to create my own app The Facebook application I created was a chance app I also never used Facebook before, since I’m not a fan of social networking sites, so this was the first time I’ve used Facebook

20. Fifth Project: Dealing With Newcomers & Encouraging Contribution 5th Project

21. Dealing With Newcomers & Encouraging Contribution We were assigned to answer the question, “What makes a social application viral?” After creating our first Facebook app, we were assigned to promote it within a period of one week while gathering daily data on how many users were using our application Promoting my app was hard, since it was the first time I used Facebook and I had to find friends and people to try my app Because my first attempted Facebook app was very lame and useless, I decided to create another app (a quiz app)

23. Sixth Project: Encouraging Contribution (Project Day) 6th Project

24. Encouraging Contribution (Project Day) After promoting our Facebook application and gathering daily data, we then had to “demonstrate” it We were assigned to use Google Docs in order to present and demonstrate our Facebook app We also had to answer the question, “What is special about your Facebook application?” in our Google Docs presentation

27. Seventh Project: Wisdom of Crowds & Information Cascades 7th Project

28. Wisdom of Crowds & Information Cascades In this project, we needed to participate in a debate on our Kalayaan class website The topic of the debate was about crowds being considered as “smart” and we had to choose to be FOR or AGAINST this subject We also needed to give a reference to our stand I chose to be AGAINST because I don’t believe that all crowds on the internet are smart and they cannot be trusted

32. The Web As A Social Network In this project, we were supposed to identify the ways by which the web can be considered as social We were asked if we could find a website which is not social I was surprised that I couldn’t think of a website which isn’t social, and I also couldn’t find one We responded by posting our answer and our ideas on our class website’s blog
