Blogs vs. Wikis

What is the difference between a blog and a wiki? A blog is owned by one person. A wiki is shared by a community of people. Things that might be more suited to a blog are things that one person researched or has an opinion on and wants comments on it, but the creator wants his product or report to be emphasized over the comments. A wiki is the product of a community of people on a subject. Creating the wiki had me invite people with email addresses to contribute to it. The wiki emphasizes the discussion and has many users contributing to its content. A wiki is a report of the opinions of a community of people instead of the report of the opinions of one person. Things appropriate for a blog: The opinions of one person, one person's report on the trends in a subject, how the author of a book wants the content interpreted, and a presenter's ideas on how a power point presentation went. Things for a wiki: A team completing and discussing a project, a meetup group socializing and describing their subject, or a committee of people with ideas on how to do something.
