I realise that the examples in "About our blog" do not allow too much personal stories input. I simply wish everyone here is a critic more than a documentarian.
I am looking at the blogcritics.org that is using a clear subject classification to the postings and rotation of monthly highlight persons in the subject and their features.
Since we may be contributing different media, the clssification system cannot be only by subject, it has to be media classified too. So I am thinking of a collective writing - wiki so that under one topic such as Central Police Quater, we can have relevant contributions such as map, excerpts of the talk, personal thoughts, discussion, photo document, writing of issue concerns etc.
Last time in Alex Hui's talk, he said he believe that wiki will made true or approaching true knowledge and he is looking foreward to this. check out Bliki

The wiki concept is really an amazing idea in a global sense, I agree with the thought about collective writing and it is great to have a wikiblog that is Hong Kong based, even if we can only start it off as a small-scale one, ideally it can become an archive for storing Hong Kong art & culture related issues if we choose to open it to outside parties, it is valuable if different media can be grouped under one wikiblog.
Do we have any examples in Hong Kong that is functioning similarly, will it be in a format like the Inmedia plus the ‘editing’ function?
Sorry one more point to add.
The wiki is taking an informational stance on ‘knowledge’ and ‘facts’ being contributed by different people, but if we are doing something critical, do we still wish our critique/comments/views/thoughts/works to be edited? Or are we doing both under this collective writing idea?
Blog project idea by Mow Mow:
When we're defining exactly what we want to achieve, we’re much more likely to create a kind of results this class needs. There will be a much greater chance of success if all of us are involved in systematically defining, planning and implementing the portal.
The planning stage is important. It is no use getting to the key stage only to find most of our classmates do not get involved. If the class is serious, organisation is what someone cannot afford to ignore. So, it is better to prepare now.
VAC's role is vital in keeping each team member focused on the common goal. Any type of content will be great, but the process is more we need for learning. The following are some skills that I'd learnt from the South China Morning Post's publishing :
1. To make sure we have the go-ahead to start the portal.
2. To share ideas about the content.
3. Accurate definition and design; methods and techniques, will ensure support from others and allow work to progress in a logical fashion.
4.Outline the key activities needed to meet specific milestones.
5.A short period of consultation before our plans are finalized so that all classmates feel involved.
6.The lead should be clear about who is responsible for leading e.g.Ceci, and pull in everyone who has a critical role.
Finally, a success portal will be a matter of implementation!
See ya......
