The power of wikis

Can the open-source movement in content creation live side by side with other forms of communication where we like to have the final word? Whether it's for a product or a project, a wiki can organize information and archive contributions much better than blogs, and users need very little expertise. It's also moving into business and marketing. Wikinomics, a book by Don Tapscott and Anthony D. Williams, extends the topic into an online chapter, using a wiki. The authors ask readers to write the chapter and join the discussion. Readers can add new content, do some fact-checking and make the chapter relevant to their own experience. So now that wikis have blurred the lines, it's time for internal, external, brand and corporate communication to get involved.
