i think that's probably the worst blog post title of all time...anyway, swiftly moving on...read the 7 things about wikis and looked at the common craft vid too...thing 8 already would you believe?...yes you would says you, on thing 91 or something...bah...
i kind of knew what wikis were but hadn't used one actively, beyond looking at wikipedia...i thought the educause article was a good read and pretty balanced in showing some of the pitfalls...i can definitely see that they could be useful and maybe easier than emailing files or even a shared folder or whatever...think there would need to be groundrules about how they are used if it was in work...i could see myself getting all uppity if someone edited or deleted some pearl of wisdom i had written...i'd probably throw a strop and do something mad like put a 3 hour loan down in the junior section...i think i've said too much...
the common craft video was cool too...it struck me that wikis could be useful for committees where you have people from different areas or depts working on joint projects or documents...that's all i have for now i think...i'm sure some other half-baked ideas about wikis will come to me after i've partaken in a discussion or two over on the 23 things one...did someone say baked...mmm...
That's not too Shakey a start, you're flying through it, put the rest of us slow coaches to shame, it took us weeks, lol :)
