week 9

I used to use Wikipedia quite a bit in my previous job, and still go to it on occasion now. I find it very useful, but of course if I had to have really reliable information about a topic I wouldn't rely on it. I hadn't really seen other wikis before looking at a few of the ones suggested, but I can see how they are very useful, for example a conference, or even in the workplace for procedures where everyone can add and update information. The wikinorthia one is fascinating (the bit about life in the 30s). And I enjoyed the booklovers one.
