I've viewed the wikis listed in Thing 10, and I'm quite impressed. Previously, I had thought of library wikis as a place where coworkers could post ideas, resources, and comments. I didn't see the what a wiki offers that a group blog does not.
After looking at several wikis, I see that they can be used in a variety of ways. I saw one which seemed to serve as a portal for library resources. Some links in it took viewers outside of the wiki and right into the library catalog. For a library without an IT staff (or with an uncooperative one) a wiki could function as a simple library homepage.
On the 23 Things wiki, I added a page called Librarians on the Road. I'm attempting to add a link to it to the sidebar or the frontpage, but we'll see how that turns out.
The front page of the 23 Things wiki is a mess! It's nearly impossible to find pages within the wiki.
