Thing 10: Wikis

I have used Wikipedia but I've never worked on a wiki. It is an interesting concept of anyone being able to make additions or to edit a webpage. It has been said that we each have a piece of the wisdom. I see a wiki as being an open invitation for each person who is interested to share his or her piece of wisdom with the wiki participants. I edited the 23 Things Wiki. (I can't say that I shared any wisdom but it was an opportunity to try out this tool.) One library application would be for staff who are responsible for developing guide sheets for training other staff.
