I’ve worked with wikis before and find them very helpful for collaboration.  At our library we needed to put together some documents with multiple contributors and for a while we had a lot of trouble trying to figure out how to do it. For example, we had a committee that was putting together a library “code of conduct” policy – at first we tried to do it all together in person, but we found that our schedules allowed us to meet very rarely and it was taking forever.  Finally, we ended up using wikispaces to set up the document and add our individual  inputs. You could subscribe to changes in the document, and would be notified by e-mail when a change was made. Then you could see what other people were adding and comment on those changes. It ended up being a very easy and productive process.

In exploring the wikis that were listed in this assignment, I found some really helpful ones. I particularly loved this one:

What I really would like is a recipe wiki – I’m tired of everything I make for dinner all the time. Any takers???
