I was amazed when reading this that so many people use Wikis and their different environments, from schools to taking board minutes. It is such a universal tool. The only draw back is that people can edit each others work. However, I think and hope that people will only make edits to clarify or correct wrong information.

Several in the class have said the same thing, that Wikis are used more than we thought or imagined. And although it may not be the most reliable primary source, it does provide many references, terms, and background knowledge to allow someone to do further research, using the Wiki as a start point or springboard.
