Blog vs Wiki

A blog is owned by an individual where wiki can be updated by many people around the world. Blog posts are usually one person’s opinion, followed by comments. A wiki can host a blog, but a blog can’t host a wiki. The purpose of a blog is to share a log of events and personal insights. The purpose of a wiki is the creation of documents, projects, and resources.  Many Organizations are making the move to convergence. The industries are constantly learning about many new and innovative business benefits offered by network convergence. In the article titled “How To Use Wikis For Business” that the cost of publishing and sharing information using the wiki method is relatively cheaper for businesses. In the article titled “More on How to Build Your Own Wikipedia” employees wiki helps to capture employee’s opinions and comments, while employees help to govern the content. Blogs can be used for collaboration by sharing, shaping, and even creating business value. A new use for wiki that I can think of would be being able to create a song and have others edit and add lyrics to the original.
