Our first task was to identify the changes of the social web since 2006.
We responded by using Mind42, a browser-based collaborative mind map

8. Wikipedia What Leads To Wikipedias Quality
Our task was to answer the question What leads to Wikipedias quality?, knowing that Wikipedia is also a collaborative project on the internet
We had to learn how to create our own Wikipedia account and how to create our own original article on Wikipedia
The Wikipedia article weve created was based on something we considered ourselves an expert on
The article I created was about nHancer, an advanced control panel and profile editor for NVIDIA graphics cards

My first Wikipedia article

11. Third Project: Are Web Technologies That Complicated?
3rd Project

12. Are Web Technologies That Complicated?
In this project, we needed to make another collaboration via the built-in Wiki on our Kalayaan class website
We responded by collaborating on a Web Technologies Wiki and by enumerating some of the web technologies we know
We identified what kind of web technologies are present in Web 2.0, and these web technologies involved web applications that feature information sharing and collaboration

15. Fourth Project: Making Our First Facebook Application
4th Project

16. Making Our First Facebook Application
Our task was to create our very own Facebook application
We were given a 5-minute tutorial on how to create a Facebook app by using a web server
I wasnt able to actually make a Facebook app because I had a difficult time understanding how to use a web server
Due to this, I just used Facebooks built-in application builder in order to create my own app
The Facebook application I created was a chance app
I also never used Facebook before, since Im not a fan of social networking sites, so this was the first time Ive used Facebook

The 5-Minute Tutorial

My first attempted Facebook App

20. Fifth Project: Dealing With Newcomers & Encouraging Contribution
5th Project

21. Dealing With Newcomers & Encouraging Contribution
We were assigned to answer the question, What makes a social application viral?
After creating our first Facebook app, we were assigned to promote it within a period of one week while gathering daily data on how many users were using our application
Promoting my app was hard, since it was the first time I used Facebook and I had to find friends and people to try my app
Because my first attempted Facebook app was very lame and useless, I decided to create another app (a quiz app)

23. Sixth Project: Encouraging Contribution (Project Day)
6th Project

24. Encouraging Contribution (Project Day)
After promoting our Facebook application and gathering daily data, we then had to demonstrate it
We were assigned to use Google Docs in order to present and demonstrate our Facebook app
We also had to answer the question, What is special about your Facebook application? in our Google Docs presentation

27. Seventh Project: Wisdom of Crowds & Information Cascades
7th Project

28. Wisdom of Crowds & Information Cascades
In this project, we needed to participate in a debate on our Kalayaan class website
The topic of the debate was about crowds being considered as smart and we had to choose to be FOR or AGAINST this subject
We also needed to give a reference to our stand
I chose to be AGAINST because I dont believe that all crowds on the internet are smart and they cannot be trusted

31. Eighth Project: The Web As A Social Network
8th Project

32. The Web As A Social Network
In this project, we were supposed to identify the ways by which the web can be considered as social
We were asked if we could find a website which is not social
I was surprised that I couldnt think of a website which isnt social, and I also couldnt find one
We responded by posting our answer and our ideas on our class websites blog

33. The Web As A Social Network

34. Ninth Project: The Social Web & Privacy
9th Project

35. The Social Web & Privacy
Our ninth project was about our personal privacy on the internet
We were asked how much personal information we were disclosing online
We also had to Google ourselves and we had to respond to the question by giving our reaction based on the search results
And finally, we had to describe and explain our privacy settings on Facebook
Our response was written in another blog post in our class website

Google Results For My Name

My Blog Response

38. 10th Project: More Web Technologies
10th Project

39. More Web Technologies
Our task was to create our own timeline using the Class Tool
The timeline was about the internet, and how it evolved since its popular birth in 1969
The timeline should also contain the Webs evolving web technologies and tools
We were also assigned to indicate the Webs development from Web 1.0 to Web 3.0, and we had to incorporate our personal references into our timeline
