I thought about doing a post called "Bad Blogger," but don't want to wallow in guilt for not being online much this past month.
One thing I'm really happy about is the fact that pbwiki allows you to add students as users quickly and easily! It was such a major hassle last year to create a dummy gmail account and enter each person individually. Yuk! This is an improvement that I really appreciate. It makes the tool so much easier to use. One thing I haven't figured out yet (I think it's in the upgrade version) is how to get the user name to show up in the email alert when changes in the wiki have been made. It was so nice last year to make quick notes in the gradebook based on what showed up in the email each day. Now they're "anonymous" until you actually travel to the wiki to read them there.
This student user improvement made me really happy, but every time Facebook makes an "upgrade," I just get crabby! Do they just change stuff because they're bored? Do they hate their users and yank our chains every few months just for kicks and giggles? Just when I start to figure out how to use my FB account, they change something and I'm like a babe in the woods again. I'm glad I have a 17-year-old master user in my house!

Hmmmm, I don't know why they are showing up as anonymous, but PBwiki's help is really helpful, so I'd recommend contacting them.
I also like the new upgrade where you can get the email feeds only from certain pages ... that could be really helpful in some situations.
Unfortunately, I don't like the new "Navigator" box they added, but maybe I just haven't discovered the purpose of it.
