Thing 17. Explore and contribute to a wiki

Following the instructions, I signed up to the Web. 2.0 wiki and got the all powerful edit tool going. I really wanted to enter into the spirit of the task, but felt nervous about editing someone elses work, when I didn't have any real contribution to make. So, all I did was add a couple of words that I felt wouldn't harm the overall content of the page I was on. I was a complete chicken!
My concern would always be that you could write anything on a Wiki, and compromise it's validity. I like the idea of the Wiki, and in essence it's a great way of sharing knowledge, opinions, and a workload, and certainly has its place as a useful tool.
