Blog: Wiki So Far

Unfortunately, I have not added any new contents to a wiki page yet. However, I have been looking at other students contributions to other wikis and have seen the amazing results to some of those pages. Some of them caught my attention and one on gaming particularly. I intend to focus my topic on new media and video gaming. I will be focusing on how new media and technology have shifted the way we play and watch video games. I will be looking up statistics on revenue and user growth as well as the number of live video game streamers and viewers. I will be adding ideas about how electronic gaming has changed the way people view gamers and why it is treated as a competitive sport now. I intend to incorporate parts of my term paper into the wiki to talk about gaming blockchain technology and how it has created opportunities to gaming and streaming companies.

This means that all devices that are connected to this same network will share the workloads. This meant that each "peer" in the network is equal to the other "peers" and that there is no centralized owner of the network. The primary advantage of P2P sharing is for all "peers" to work together to deliver a specific service or perform a particular task. In "Content Producers Should take Advantage of P2P, Not Fear it" NMA Staff talks about why producers should stop preventing users to pirate ...

Blog v Wiki

The terms "blog" and "wiki" are often lumped and categorized together. Although there are many similarities in their appearance there are also many differences in their purpose, style, and audience as well.  A blog is a website with usually one author and many contributors. The author posts about different topics and contributors would comment on those posts. Blogs are usually written in a "diary-type" style and express the author's opinions about different topics. Blogs allow for interactive discussions and provide the audience with an up to date commentary in a traceable timeline. According to How can we measure the influence of the blogosphere" Kathy E.
