Let’s talk about wikis
Wiki = • Content management system • Collaborative authoring • Version control • Easy/no markup
Why wiki?

build that community resource
build a knowledge base
To sum up... • A wiki is a great tool for • Subject guides • Internal documentation • Collecting resources • Building knowledge bases • Seek out or build a community resource using a wiki
So, what’s the difference? BLOGS WIKIS Organized by date Organized by links Single-author posts Multi-author pages Edit own content Edit everyone’s content Posts rarely change Pages constantly change
Bottom line? • These are just 2 tools in your toolbox! • Assess your needs, evaluate the options, choose your tool accordingly. • …(don’t do that backwards)
