Thing 10 - Wikis

Wikis? I'm not sure about wikis. They are a decent way to communicate while keeping all conversations central, but it seems a little archaic. I like the edit feature, but it seems to cause problems. One of the wikis I visited noted that vandalism has caused them to create new procedures around editing. Four years ago I started promoting library programs on a local home school organization's wiki. It was often outdated. I'm not sure anyone looked at it.

Thing 9 - Collaboration

Interesting concept! I love the idea of using this to share docs and allow others to make edits.

Unfortunately, I am not just "word processing". The program I use most (Quark) is not supported by Zoho Writer - I didn't have time to try Google docs. Word processing programs don’t have the design elements that I need. I can definitely see the value, though!
