Wiki Discussion

Using a wiki for discussion and group collaboration was an interesting experience. The wiki discussion differed from the discussion forum in that it facilitated the building, extending of knowledge on a focused topic. The discussion was focused solely on the topic without sidebar discussions. Sometimes in the forum discussions the focus scatters into other directions and the main thread gets lost. This is not necessarily a bad thing as the side topics are current and related to technology use from different perspectives. The biggest challenge for me was the visual layout of the discussion. It was a jumble of words compacted into a small space that took a long time to unscramble and piece together. I think that a smaller group contributing may have made it more manageable.
