Wiki Essay/Blog feedback/ Magnum Award

1) Wiki, essays
Whats the point in the wiki?...will anyone read it apart from the teachers and a few studentslike these blogs maybe the teachers should add comments as i hope we do get marked for these as i noticed that not many people have added posts...(maybe not my opinion,but a statement)
The subjects are good if not broad....and im glad its only 2,500 words...as i have a nerve injury that cause me to make many typing mistakes and take me ages to write much..so when i write i really try, but excuse the spelling mistakes.

2) Blog feedback
Not much really, i would like to add more but i seem to have aproblem adding comments to other peoples blogs; also now people havnt replied to my feedback (even though they have been small) and advice etc..but i belive many people are working on stories and working...shame though as i think peer feedback and positive critic should be more prevalent...People are too nice! of course our peers and teachers dont wont to dishearten us but we/i need criticism ..however hard..harder the better!..to move on grow and get better...no?....

3)Magnum Expression Award
I was dissopointed with the amount of dialouge concerning the idea to have a critic of work to a view of producing a group submission for the Magnum expression award..only Grey Layachek replied..maybe our two works wouldnt be compatable?..but i thought it could be a relavent idea and a way of making some more connections that may last until further projects and collabarations, group agency projects?....
It could be wrong or it could be right; but the first impression i could draw from this, is that people dont really like my photos or belive that my work is compatable in a project like this side by side with their own images?....in a way i would prefer to read this criticism, than presume it!
