Item #16 Wikis

Wikis look like a very useful tool. I fully intend to explore this option as a way of posting book reviews, and other library information. I have heard that you can protect your wiki,or limit who has access to it with passwords. I am thinking of using a wiki page as the library page on our school site. It would be good because wikis are easy to edit, seem simple to add pages and links to, and supposedly can be protected with passwords. I am going to continue looking into this... One disappointment I had with this exercise what that so many of the wiki websites had great titles and sounded really useful. Once I followed the links to the content I was somewhat underwhelmed. Still, this is a new area and I think it can only get better.
