"According to the Gartner Group, wikis will be mainstream collaboration tools in at least 50% of companies by 2009. Despite the relative ease of deployment, the best wikis draw on usability principles from web design and include solid architecture and content. While IT departments mobilize to identify and launch the best enterprise applications, librarians can explore the world of free wiki applications now to master their use and develop effective design and content skills. This program will compare several wiki software tools, explore successful applications of wikis and describe best practices for building and maintaining wikis in collaborative project and team management."
