Wiki-Wiki-Woot

Alternate title: Wiki-Wiki-Tavi

So yeah!

I do think wikis are pretty useful. Despite Wikipedia's lack of official reliability, I start out there for basic information a lot (and I use the external links for a possible source of sites of official reliability).

I think of smaller scale wikis as bulletin boards, without the danger that your flyer's gonna get ripped down and lost forever (hooray for page roll back). And, of course, you don't have to actually swing by the building that the bulletin board is located in. Handy dandy, that.

I made a wiki for the Special Assignment Librarians way back when to help us keep track of assignment requests, and who was where, and so on. Useful! So I do like them quite a bit.
