Wikis Can Take Off In A Corporate Setting
Here's a wiki primer from AP (via Micro Persuasion).
Where Wikis can truly take off are in corporate and organizational settings, they say giving examples from research - craft guidelines on research ethics - and education where students annotate and discuss poems.
Moreover, workers keep their calendars and managers can rearrange priorities finding the Wiki's attraction is in its efficiency. Unlike e-mail and discussion boards, which tend to involve back-and-forth exchanges and lots of attachments, Wikis permit changes directly to the main document.
