What is a wiki?

A wiki is a website designed for collaboration. In a wiki everyone can edit, update and append pages with new information, all without knowing HTML. Wikis can be either publicly accessible or privately secure.

Beside using a blog to share information, we can also consider using Wikis.

Some examples of Wiki

  • http://www.jot.com/ (acquired by Google)
  • http://pbwiki.com/
  • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_University
  • http://www.jot.com/wiki/wiki-customers.php

Tumblelog- alternative form of blogging

The Wikipedia explains that a tumblelog is a variation on traditional blogging that favors very short, mixed media posts with little or no commentary.

In essence it’s a lightning-fast way to publish the stuff you run across on the web every day, and the layout includes large text, photos, links, and video frames.

A really great example of a well-done tumblelog is projectionist.

We all come across interesting tidbits online every day that we want to remember and share – links, photos, videos. “Tumblelog,” is a no-hassle, no-writing-required way to share those bits and maintain a personal site with the least possible commitment.

Do checkout Tumblr.
