Wiki

What can my library & School do with a wiki?

Wikis are a great way of collaboratively developing a website, but they are not suitable for every web-based project. While some websites might benefit from the insights of the community, others function better under tighter control.
If you are looking to develop content that requires input from people outside of the library & school, a wiki is a the ideal tool to solicit that content.
The following are just a few ideas for how wikis could be used in public libraries & schools.
wiki is a great format for a subject guide. Because it can be edited by anyone, patrons can add to the collection of useful resources and can prune away the dead links. The librarian or teacher can moderate the wiki and decide what websites can stay in the guide, or he or she can let everyone contribute freely. It’s a great way to develop a subject guide that really represents the interests of its users and doesn’t put the entire burden of finding websites on the librarian or teacher.

iGoogle

It was great setting up my Personilized iGoogle account.
