Initial+discussions

This is our first wiki-based discussion:

I started looking at the widget options- I thought about adding a chat feature since we want our teens to be able to interact with the wiki. I'll look into how it works.

This is what I have as our different focuses: Karl- college prep Lauren- peer connection/communication Marijke- community service Tami- book discussion/chat (if she's game) //((((I'm game:))) 10/17// From Tami---Would you like the book talk to begin with a particular book, a certain genre of books, or any ideas??? 10/17

//I think your What's Hot approach is a good one- I also like your idea about adding movies when you can. I know the Twilight series is pretty popular. With Halloween coming up maybe you could do a focus on vampire lit??- Marijke 10-18//

We agreed we would gear the wiki toward rural teens as a way to connect they might not normally have.

We also agreed to meet via chat sometime Saturday afternoon so Tami can join us. I think the topic for the chat was going to be a check in and progress report.

FromTami--What time on Saturday would you like to chat? I'll try to have my laptop with me.10/17

//Should we touch base via email Sat am and then possibly have the Chat Sunday after 4 depending on how far we've gotten? It sounds like we are all free then. -Marijke//

From Tami--What do you think of my pages for Literary Circle?? Too general, broad, sufficient? 10/17 //Looks good to me- Marijke//

//from Marijke 10-20// This is where we will describe our experiences working as a team on the wiki project. I've listed the ways we communicated on ideas, process etc. Please add anything I might have left out.
