Jack from Motivatories asked me last night what is the difference between a wiki and a blog, and I said something along the lines that a wiki is a “collaboration tool that leads to consensus text” whereas a Blog allows for “statements to be made to stimulate discussion via comments” so represents adversarial style of communication.
That was not as clear as I wanted it to be. Here’s a better explanation:
‘Blogs are a better communication tool when you want to get information out to people, and want to enable feedback, but keep the original text intact. Wikis are better when you want information to be touched – and enhanced – by as many hands as possible.”
