Wikis

Why Wiki?

• Easy to use
  • Web-based
  • Simple syntax (don't need to know HTML)
• Anyone can make changes -- no more waiting for the Webmaster to get around to your requested changes.
• Many free and open source options
• Flexible and extensible

Why Not?

• Too open -- "I don't want someone changing my writing!"
• Disorganized
• Vandalism and spam
• 
  

I love the idea of being able to help develop a web page no matter how experienced a computer user I may or may not be.

However, I do not like the idea that someone could destroy all your hard work by vandalizing the page. (Yet, I suppose that is where log ins, passwords, etc... would be helpful).
