Task 15 - So what's in a Wiki?

There was a lot of reading in this one. The most important concept about wikis is that you need to have a targeted group who will respond to your efforts. The Discovery Resources were very good and gave good tips for setting up wikis and what to look for in a wiki platform.

I thought the conference was a good idea, particularly where people could add their own social ideas about the location. I think wikis could also work at conferences if they are set up as a place to ask questions about sessions e.g. clarification of issues or something similar.

Book clubs would also be good areas for wikis. You could run a club for people in remote places. I am sure I could think of other ideas.
