Week 6 - Wikis

I find wikis http://www.libsuccess.org/index.php?title=Main_Page a very helpful collaborative endeavor, in the sense that it allows cooperation and sharing of ideas. Of course, there is the problem of the open content that can be edited by everybody, hence there might be errors.
One useful usage for wikis would be when a group of librarians is working on the same project.
I liked the idea of the Book Lovers Wiki where customers can add their own reviews on the wiki . It could be used in correlation with a book club.
