Other appealing features include gadget affordability and production simplicity. In the meantime, Podcasting has some drawbacks. It not only lacks interaction but also requires high bandwidth. Moreover, amateur producers tend to publish a low quality audio content. Finally, Podcast does not accommodate individuals who are hearing impaired.

THis means that in the editing process the document being worked on looks very similar to what the final product will look like, meaning the user can easily make changes and additions as they see fit without having to fool around with layouts and focusing more on the information. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites, for use in personal note-taking and information gathering, in corporate networks and in knowledge management systems. Most wikis serve a specific purpose, and off- topic material is quickly scrapped by the user community. Other wikis that are less formal, known as "open purpose" wikis have less rigid rules as to how the content should be organized.

16. Wikis History The first wiki was developed by Ward Cunningham in 1994 called "WikiWikiWeb." It was put into use on the internet in March of 1995, but didn't become popular until the early 2000's. The main use of Wikis since then has been for collaborative group work, and often replaces intranets in the corporate business world since you can access a wiki from anywhere with internet access. One of the largest wiki sites going right now is "wikipedia," a website that collaborates information on pretty much anything you'd like to know about from the edits and input of almost 20 million people. There are wikis in over 270 languages on wikipedia, and over 14 million articles in total. It was launched in 2001, and has since grown to the largest and most popular general reference work on the internet. The word "Wiki" comes from the hawaiian word meaning ”fast." Cunningham had thought about calling his website "quick- web," but remembering a vacation he had taken to hawaii where he took a bus called the "WikiWiki" from the airport, chose to use that name instead.
