Wiki, Wiki, Whoooooooo!

I enjoyed using the wiki for our class and can see how useful a tool like this could be in the classroom.  I think it's a great way for a class or even just groups of students to collaborate and compile information on topics they are investigating.  I can foresee some short-comings, especially how revisions kept getting erased because of users posting at the same time, but I think these kinds of mishaps will be less likely to occur for work done over longer periods of time.  I think it is vital that the group members to come together before starting to edit the wiki in order to establish some guidelines for formatting and presentation, as I spent a lot of time adjusting forms on our class wiki to assemble some kind of unity.  If everyone has a uniform grasp of what font, size, structure of layout, etc. then the "making it nice" would be a lot less of a hassle.
