Thing #16 - Wikis

Some of the other sites have been difficult to navigate or even to understand their implications for me. However, I did enjoy learning about wikis - I can definitely see the positives associated with technology of this sort. In many cases it would be most helpful to have a group of people develop a web site; i.e. long-distance conference planning, etc. In our case, giving our patrons the ability to add their own comments about books they've read, etc. opens up a whole new resource to the others. On the other side, a site that can be edited at any time by many people might not be too reliable for actual data.
