Wikipedia

Wikipedia (/ˌwɪkɪˈpiːdiə/ ( listen), /ˌwɪkiˈpiːdiə/ ( listen) WIK-ih-PEE-dee-ə) is a


multilingual, web-based, free encyclopedia based on a model of openly editable and
viewable content, a wiki. It is the largest and most popular general reference work on
the World Wide Web, and is one of the most popular websites by Alexa rank. It is
owned and supported by the Wikimedia Foundation, a non-profit organization that
operates on money it receives from donors.
Wikipedia was launched on January 15, 2001, by Jimmy Wales and Larry
Sanger. Sanger coined its name, as a portmanteau of wiki (the Hawai'ian word for
"quick") and "encyclopedia". Initially an English-language encyclopedia, versions in
other languages were quickly developed. With 5,817,563 articles,[notes 3] the English
Wikipedia is the largest of the more than 290 Wikipedia encyclopedias. Overall,
Wikipedia comprises more than 40 million articles in 301 different languages and by
February 2014 it had reached 18 billion page views and nearly 500 million unique
visitors per month.

Blog
A blog (a truncation of the expression "weblog") is a discussion or
informational website published on the World Wide Webconsisting of discrete, often
informal diary-style text entries (posts). Posts are typically displayed in reverse
chronological order, so that the most recent post appears first, at the top of the web
page. Until 2009, blogs were usually the work of a single individual,[citation
needed] occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject or topic. In the

2010s, "multi-author blogs" (MABs) emerged, featuring the writing of multiple authors
and sometimes professionally edited. MABs from newspapers, other media
outlets, universities, think tanks, advocacy groups, and similar institutions account for an
increasing quantity of blog traffic. The rise of Twitter and other "microblogging" systems
helps integrate MABs and single-author blogs into the news media. Blog can also be
used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

Multimedia
Multimedia is content that uses a combination of different content forms such as
text, audio, images, animations, video and interactive content. Multimedia contrasts
with media that use only rudimentary computer displays such as text-only or traditional
forms of printed or hand-produced material.

Multimedia can be recorded and played, displayed, interacted with or accessed


by information content processing devices, such as computerized and electronic
devices, but can also be part of a live performance. Multimedia devices are electronic
media devices used to store and experience multimedia content. Multimedia is
distinguished from mixed media in fine art; for example, by including audio it has a
broader scope. In the early years of multimedia the term "rich media" was synonymous
with interactive multimedia, and "hypermedia" was an application of multimedia.
Presentation
A presentation is the process of presenting a topic to an audience. It is typically a
demonstration, introduction, lecture, or speech meant to inform, persuade, inspire,
motivate, or to build good will or to present a new idea or product. The term can also be
used for a formal or ritualized introduction or offering, as with the presentation of
a debutante. Presentations in certain formats are also known as keynote address.

Online Survey
There are several basic questionnaire data collection methods. The most popular
today is online, with questions presented on a Web page. A much less frequent variation is to
have questions presented in an email. Some very simple surveys use text messages. The gold
standard in survey research is telephone interviewing. Another option is in-person interviewing.
Yet another is to have the questions presented at a kiosk. And finally the last method is the
traditional mail survey.

Wikitravel
Wikitravel is a web-based collaborative travel guide project based on the wiki model,
launched by Evan Prodromou and Michele Ann Jenkins in 2003. The site is a
multilingual effort that aims to cover all of the globe's destinations and also hosts a free
media repository known as Wikitravel Shared. In 2006, Internet Brands bought the
trademark and servers and later introduced advertising to the website. This move met
opposition from users, with many German and Italian editors leaving in December 2006
for a newly established wiki, Wikivoyage.
Wikitravel received a Webby Award for Best Travel Website in 2007. The same year,
Wikitravel's founders began Wikitravel Press, a now-defunct project that published
printed travel guides based on the website's content. The first print guides were
released on February 1, 2008.
Differents between Buyers and Sellers
Buyer's Market
A buyer's market is what you get when there's more supply than
demand. There are more people looking to sell houses than there are people looking to
buy houses. In a buyer's market, sellers may have to accept a lower price than they
want to sell their home and may have to resort to staging and incentives. This is the
ideal situation for buyers because they can get a great deal.
Seller's Marker
A seller's market is just the opposite. The demand is larger than the supply.
People have more money to spend on real estate, so sellers will often see several
buyers competing to buy their property, which drives up the price. This means that
buyers will have to spend more to get what they want. This is the ideal situation for
sellers because they get a great price on their homes.

Wikispaces
Wikispaces was a wiki hosting service based in San Francisco, California.
Launched by Tangient LLC in March 2005, Wikispaces was purchased by Tes Global
(formerly TSL Education) in March 2014. It competed with PBworks, Wetpaint, Wikia,
and Google Sites (formerly JotSpot). It was among the largest wiki hosts.[citation needed].In
September 2014, Tes announced that free hosting of non-educational wikis would
cease. These wikis faced a 14 November 2014 shutdown deadline. Only wikis used
exclusively in K–12 or higher education remain free.Private wikis with advanced
features for businesses, non-profits and educators are available for an annual fee.
Wikispaces has also given away more than 100,000 premium wikis to K–
12 educators.Since 2010 Wikispaces have cooperated with web 2.0 education
platform Glogster EDU. Glogster EDU embeds Glogs into Wikispaces services.
Wikispaces - is a social writing platform for education. Due to cost issues, classroom
and free-level Wikispaces closed on July 31, 2018, while private Wikispaces closed on
January 31, 2019.

3 Different Types of Web App
Wiki
A wiki (/ˈwɪki/ ( listen) WIK-ee) is a website on which users collaboratively modify
content and structure directly from the web browser. In a typical wiki, text is written
using a simplified markup language and often edited with the help of a rich-text editor.A
wiki is run using wiki software, otherwise known as a wiki engine. A wiki engine is a type
of content management system, but it differs from most other such systems,
including blog software, in that the content is created without any defined owner or
leader, and wikis have little inherent structure, allowing structure to emerge according to
the needs of the users. There are dozens of different wiki engines in use, both
standalone and part of other software, such as bug tracking systems. Some wiki
engines are open source, whereas others are proprietary. Some permit control over
different functions (levels of access); for example, editing rights may permit changing,
adding, or removing material. Others may permit access without enforcing access
control. Other rules may be imposed to organize content.

Blog
A blog (a truncation of the expression "weblog") is a discussion or
informational website published on the World Wide Webconsisting of discrete, often
informal diary-style text entries (posts). Posts are typically displayed in reverse
chronological order, so that the most recent post appears first, at the top of the web

used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

Video Conversion
Video converters are computer programs that can change the storage
format of digital video. They may recompress the video to another format in a process
called transcoding, or may simply change the container format without changing
the videoformat.
