#19: Replacing blog with wiki

Not easy to do. I've found some wikis that are designed to look more like web pages, sometimes even blogs. I created LibraryBytes (blogspot) as a liaison tool to communicate with the UAF English Dept., but found that no one was interacting with the blog--they were interested in pages I created and maintained, for example a page that explained how to use the library's databases with embedded links--static pages, static info.

Was happy to see that blog software was listed on the awards list. Tried wetpaint and got an initial page created, but how do I get rid of the advertising and the other commercial links I'm not interested in? Will keep working.
