Week 7, #16: Wikis
I like the collaborative potential of wikis, and the fact that contributions can be made without difficulty or special technical knowledge. Because I am interested in online local historical information, I would love to see an online community of users who would share their recollections of places and experiences in Caroline County, linked to, among other things, the online historic postcard collection. A wiki may be a good avenue for this. Bringing local users, particularly older ones, up to speed on wikis, and generating interest for them in contributing to it, is something that I think may be a challenge, however - but still worth looking at.
