Thanks to this class I have now finally gone to the HLS wiki an throw away a reminder note on my desk. Thank you for today I found the list of Web 2.0: Tools for Clinical Practice. I actually needed this list three months ago but I am so glad to have it today! I don't feel ready or qualified to add anything to the wiki yet but I did set up an RSS feed to several discussions.

Blog vs wiki:
I think if your purpose or intent is to get a lot of people involve the wiki is a great way to go. You do need people willing to use the format. I tried to get out book club to use the wiki to bring up discussion questions, etc. since the presenters were coming from different departments and building but it didn't go well in part I think that was due to the idea of more "computer work". Blogs are more solo and I have hit upon a way I would really use one in my environment yet. I am wondering if MLA is going to have more committee work done on "closed" wikis. As a new committee member, I am interested in how we will be conducting business.
