I think I need to play more and perhaps create my own wiki to see how and build a better understanding of wikis.]]> Wed, 07 May 2008 22:44:30 +0000 com http://hcsdclassdemo.pbwiki.com/MBower%27s+WikiMathematics email.hidden@example.com (Karen V) Karen V commented on MBower's WikiMathematics I checked out your wikimathematics page and the links there for the math tools.
