Getting Blackboard wikis to talk to yahoo pipes via google docs

i wanted to allow students to put their own blog urls into a wiki in blackboard. then i want to collect those, identify the feeds, merge them together as a single feed and share that with staff and students.
this video takes you trough the process

  1. I have watched the video in awe. I am a complete novice working in a FE environment trying to introduce wikis to my classroom. I fear I am a little way off what your video shows but it has inspired me. I use BB at the moment with not much enthusiasm as it seems quite a boring interface, but the college I work at are now upgrading (if thats the correct term) so hopefully it will look a little bit more encouraging for students and staff. At least I now know that the concept of the wiki in my class is possible with the BB platform.
