Wow! Setting up a wiki was really….fast. I guess that’s why they call it a “wiki.” I liked how the wiki online was setup to easily import code and images/video.
Using a wiki seems straightforward enough. A wiki is different from a blog in so far as the wiki can be set up to allow other people to add to/modify your work. Where a blog and wiki both originate from an individual’s idea, the wiki lets others contribute to make the wiki inclusive of the uses; the wiki’s progress is defined by those using it. A blog’s progress is driven by the origin author and readers will comment on what is posted. Think of it another way: although both blogs and wikis fall under the heading of Web 2.0, a wiki is a solid 2.0 application, while the blog still retains a Web 1.1 feel to its use.
I can see that wikis are best used for collaborative projects and blogs are useful in raising issues and stating information/opinion.
