It goes without saying that no sooner do we beging to get our arms around one technology that another one emerges.

Most of us are just now getting a feel for blogs, how they work, their purpose, etc. Now, along comes another technology that has great promise. It's call Wiki, which is an Hawaiian (or polynesian) word for "quick."

Wikis are organized as topic-based Web pages that are editable by anyone. According to an article at ComputerWorld.com...

Because Wikis and blogs are often mentioned in the same breath, it's important to point out a key distinction: Blogs are an excellent tool for knowledge management, but in practice, blogs have shortcomings. One of the hallmarks of blog structure -- a reverse chronological listing of posts -- can actually be a drawback for certain types of information. In some contexts, instead of having the newest information at the top of a page, you might want the most important information at the top.

Due to the reverse chronological order in which blog posts appear, they can be a bit rigid in terms of how information is structured. 

If you'd like to venture into Wikiworld, let me suggest an easy-to-use application called Seedwiki. It's simple enough for the laymen to setup and make use of, but has all the ventures one would need to provide a robust collaborative environment.
