Thing 16 - wikis

I've been a big fan of wikipedia since way back. From a professional point of view, I've suggested to students that it's a great place for ideas, keywords, concepts when starting a new research project. I do not however, suggest that they use it as an official cited source (yet) but that's only to keep my teachers happy. They STILL think wikipedia is the devil even though I've pointed shown them how useful it can be and that it is monitored more closely now. And besides....you can find just about ANYTHING on wikipedia. Love it. By the way, pbwiki.com looks like a great place to easily start up an educational wiki...
