Wikis

Wiki and blogs, oh my.

At this point I think I'm still a little confused about the difference between a wiki and blog. What I think I understand is that wiki's are created by a community and can be continually edited by anyone who is part of the community. I haven't spent enough time with wiki's right now to really get the motivation for using one.

I think blogs are a little more intuitive. Perhaps blogs are more intuitive to me because they look a lot like websites, and I've been on hundreds of websites. The navigation is like a website with links, resources, and usually an objective. But what I don't always get is why people would want to read someone else's blog. As I do more blog reading it may become clearer to me why I will want to be part of this communication community.
