Thoughts on different points:
1. Hosting Plans
a. Look at this link to web hosting offered through something as bland as GoDaddy.com.
This is fairly standard from what I have seen. This would be an acceptable go-by.
i. https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/hosting/shared.asp?ci=9009
1. Towards the bottom of this page, select the “windows” plan.
2. “Do you want wiki-type tools that would allow community driven content? Wjo has ownership
of the information? Can others fix faulty information?
a. I have had some thoughts on this subject:
i. The deliverable is two-fold:
1. Insight from one person on how they would do something
2. Insight from a community on how they would do something
ii. The individual model should not be editable, but I am still thinking about the
community model.
1. There are two possibilities for the community model as I see them:
a. A wiki page where everyone can edit and the viewer sees one
page presenting a complete topic. That topic may have 50
authors, but the viewer doesn’t know that, nor do they
particularly care.
i. The upside is that this format is probably the easiet to
understand, and people already see this type of format
on Wikipedia
ii. The downside is that you may lose something of value
from different perspectives not being offered.
b. A group blog (or something like that), where you see a history of
input from different users.
i. The upside is that you can see all the users, band
potentially capture the perspective of different people
ii. The downside is the value of the differing perspectives
could be lost in trying to sift through all the segmented
pieces of input.
b. Conclusion: I think we may want to have a blended model that allows for both formats,
allowing the users to pick which format is preferable to them.
i. Part of the page just has to do with authored content
ii. Another part of the page (different tab) has to do with a wiki covering the topic
area discussed showing a community based perspective.
iii. The author links the content to the topic area, which is linked to the wiki.
3. People establishing their identity: Possible solution – peer reviewed content
