Wikis come in a lot of forms. Wikispaces is one type of wiki. There's also WetPaint, Google Sits, PB Wiki (renamed PB Spaces, I think) and a host of others. They all do roughly the same thing but each offers slightly different bells and whistles.

Hello JoNelle,<br />
<br />
I recently learned about wikis in my technology course I am taking this semester. However, the term still seems foreign to me. Are wikispaces the same as a wiki? From your response you seem to have a handle on it. As a beginner, I want to learn about this social networking tool so that I can perhaps incorporate it into my class when I begin teaching. Any advice?

Thank you Ruth<br />
I have successfully used the "target = " _blank" before but don't know how it works with the kind of html code you get from say Wordle.

I don't understand because your link above takes me to a website so I am not sure what you mean by 'the places'<br />
<br />
Maybe we are talking about different things!

you paste the link and in the places I said you write the name of the site that you want to open, and in the second one the name of the website and it will open it in a different window.

Aha I have figured this out .You have to do add a widget and then you paste this text in:<br />
<a href="http://www.nameofsite.com" target="_blank">link name</a><br />
where you fill in the name of the site you want to open and the name of the link you want to appear on your wiki.

How do I get this to open in a new window? Any ideas? I love Wikispaces and my class are very impressed.<br />
Links are no problem in a new window but something like this from Wordle (the html to embed is provided on th Wordle site) when embeded seem to open in the same window as it does here.<br />
