Week 3: Jason’s soapbox!

I am going to confine my work to my blog as I think it is the perfect platform to not only inform people of my ideas and progress but also to consolidate what I am doing. Frankly, I am finding the forums convoluted and somewhat undirected. I am a rather independent and private worker and find them to be particularly unpleasant places to operate (not to knock those that thrive and enjoy open online communication). This is not to say that I do not see a place for forums and wikis, but one needs to be cautions as these areas, “as well as blogs” are not formally peer reviewed and therefore the information presented within these medias is not necessarily to be trusted. The internet can provide vast amounts of information though as we all know this information needs to be treated with a degree of scepticism and carefully filtered.
