wiki again

I missed last week's webcast on wikis, so my group leader suggested that I view the archived presentation and post a comment to about it to my blog (to meet course requirements!)  So here it is:

 I think the pairing of these two presentations is excellent.  Chad Boeninger's presentation about wikis at Ohio University using the examples from Bizwiki, along with his general information and guidelines for best practices, is an effective segue into Starr Hoffman's step-by-step setup of a wiki on pbwiki.  The dual presentation made me consider again how important it is to think before diving in:  to have a mutual understanding of the purpose of the wiki among participating team members, to start out with a structure, and to have a commitment by members to participate regularly.
