Thing 12: Wikis

Wikis I get. Wikis I understand. Wikis I like.

They are a great way to collaborate and build knowledge. The informal nature and ease of access and editing is great for when you need perhaps just a simple piece of information; or you want to share a small piece of information that is part of some larger whole.

In my position, I deal with a lot of technical information. Wikis are a great way to not only share this type of information, but also a very good way to keep technical information very up-to-date.

I edited the frontpage of the 23things pbwiki; and it was fast and easy. Wikis are a great way to share knowledge as well as collect it. They might actually be my favorite Web 2.0 Thing - which is interesting because they are the most Web 2.0-ish Thing technology-wise, but they are quite 2.0 as far as information and knowledge collaboration is concerned.
