Wikis & Blogs
The goal of a wiki is to provide a space where members of a virtual community can edit any page with full freedom to introduce, alter, or remove content, including anything created by previous authors. Blogs are designed for more structured knowledge exchange and one-to-many communication while wikis enable a more collaborative experience. Both are powerful tools that can be used in a variety of ways from educating your customer base to providing an team to create more dynamic content online.
Much attention has been given recently to the next generation of online tools, dubbed Web 2.0. The premise is that barriers surrounding content creation will be lowered, allowing users to be producers as well as consumers of online information. Technologies like blogs and wikis will go a long way in changing how companies think about, store, and recycle corporate knowledge. Microsoft SharePoint is the best tool for developing and creating corporate blogs and wikis of your own today.
