Blogs vs Wikis
Blogs are platforms where individuals share their views about something. In other words, blogs are more like a personal forum, whereas, wikis are collaborative works done in a group exactly like what we are doing for this project right now. Now a days blogs and wikis both of them are used in businesses. Most of the company blogs that I've read so far are of the non-profits. They allow the users/clients to write comments and give them feedback. In fact, it is also one of the marketing stategies these days. Some of the celebrities use blogs to do some freelance writing and letting their fans comment on their posts. The article, "More on How to Build Your Own Wikipedia", explains how the the company used wiki to get the feedback from each and every member of their team. Moreover, "How To Use Wikis For Business" article discusses about the advantage of using wiki. It says that you could be using Word or Excel to do a project in a team but you have to worry about their versions while sharing the file, but you do not have to worry about that in wiki.

Wikis really makes project management much easier and lets team members stay up to date. Blogs can be very interesting as we can find out about others experiences and thoughts while sharing our own views...
