Wikis - EXTRA

This is Michael's blog on wikis, but further.
Science Museum - These objects are surrounded in history, and in this new interactive age, links to these objects can be uncovered over the internet. There is a memoirs link, where people who have seen or owned the object previously can write about them to a deeper level than just the facts. They can describe their value, importance to a community or anything archeologists cannot uncover. There is also the option of adding information about the object.
ThinkPads - As Linux is not as widely used as Windows or Mac OS X, there are not as many options available to Linux users and so an online community of these users is the perfect way to share software.
School of Architecture - Anything can be edited and it is really just for fun. Unlike wikipedia though, no one cares of you write complete rubbish. It also has links to other pages in the wiki and amusing stuff. It is a kind of Facebook/Wikipedia mix.
