Thing 16 Creative Wikis

I was glad to have it spelled out that library 2.0 is a term used to describe application of new web 2.o technology in a library setting. Finally, a clear definition of library 2.0.What a relief that old copyright laws are legally being bypassed by new creative commons licences. Librarians no longer need one webmaster; all can contribute to the web page. Wikis are great to use as library subject guides, to annotate the catalog and for collaborative projects.
Ideal as community or convention guides, wikis are useful as public service announcements.
