I don't have much experience with wikis, but I am so glad that this is the topic right now because I want to use a wiki with a course I am teaching this semester. Overall, my experience is with pbwiki through KISD and a few groups. I have not posted, but I have enjoyed seeing what others put on the wiki.
For all three of wikis that I am part of right now (LCN, Leadership, Power Standards), the format is similar since they are all related to KISD and they all use pbwiki. I also use WikiPedia often when I am trying to find information that is more popular culture than academic. I even accidentally got into a wiki that relates to my college, and I had fun reading about the athletes and the Greek system. (It is amazing to me to consider how anyone can participate in the creation of this information source. Wow.)
I am going to try to set up my coursefor my Thing #10. I can't wait to see how it goes with the students having an online community instead of meeting face-to-face each week. The possibilities...
