How cool would it be if we built a web-site like Stackoverflow (www.stackoverflow.com) that featured all the info we need to collate on this course, in a system labelled by tags like 'assignment' 'algorithm' 'past paper' and such.

There are implementations listed here:

Sounds like a cool idea. If we are not doing question and answer style with voting a simple blog like wordpress could work too. Each entry could be a question and a solution. The entry can be tagged. Folks can comment on the entry etc.

The only reason why I suggest it is that since it already exist it might be easier to setup and get working in time for us to benefit.

OK. I just looked at the list of SO clones and some of them look pretty cool and well maintained. So I guess that is not a bad idea to use one of them.

Vincent, I think the blog might be the way to go you know, its easy to set up, entries can be tagged, solutions can be posted and commented upon

Aye, I started a blog, if we all become contributors, and add the
stuff, it will make revision much easier

Hi Irwin,
Are you willing to add some of us as authors on the bog, at least temporarily? That way we can all post entries on the various topics then hopefully the discussions start.
