Wikis are now the new Industrial Revolution according to the article I just read. Well, I think riding a bicycle is the new Industrial Revolution. It is all in the mind of the beholder and the doer. If you spend hours on social networking, or work in a particular occupation that benefits from Wikis etc. than this is great, but to spend time Wiki Whacking when you can be Weed Whacking just does not make sense to me...too many weeds and not enough time.
OK, SERIOUSLY....WIKIS and all other aspects of social networking do have many benefits to people, society and the future as a whole, but to become the parigdiem that controls the success of everything we do is not a viable alternative for me. I am excited that we (Sno-Isle) are educating staff so that we can understand and communicate with the public who are involved in Social Networking, especially the Teens, but when I see hours being spent on our 20 for 2.0 assignments by some staff I get frustrated. Hey, maybe I should make a wiki about frustration, hah, than I would really be frustrated. Onward, onward, onward.
