Steak sauce?
There is something that I don’t get about wikis and their use in Web 3.0. I understand their collaborative value and how important that can be to organizations, but what about the little guy who likes having his own page/space that he doesn’t want anyone else to edit? How will wikis impact his proprietary nature? There is no question that much of the info in blogs and small websites is repetitive or inaccurate and editorial collaboration could improve the ease of finding credible information, but are individuals really going to embrace wiki development? You’re a programmer and site developer and likely in the top 1% of bloggers in your ability to create sites or program. I can see why wikis are of interest to you and why you are interested in their increasing role in the internet. How will an average blogger benefit as a user and not as a developer?
I guess I’m asking because I’m trying to determine how much attention I should pay to wikis, seeing as how I’m still challenged by HTML and using Wordpress. I know I can create interesting content and have much to offer, but I’m not sure how much I need to know about wikis.

Hi Kent,
Lol, yes how could collaborative technology help the blogger?
Well, eventually, more and more companies will build a “hybrid” system where wiki and blogs are integrated. (Actually, most new sites incorporating wikis do have blogs within itself.)
My prediction is that Wordpress will eventually incorporate “wiki” features into their blogs. They are already working on multi-user features.
I guess wiki can be thought of more as a concept rather than the technology itself that you can do “mass” collaboration.
If you look at Mashable.com, their site is really a blog combined with a social networking system, sorta like a wiki.
Maybe it won’t happen but I think those who can incorporate such features will end up being like Mashable.com instead of just a blog.

Max,
I understand what you are saying as it applies to larger blogs/sites like Mashable. Do you think there will be a migration to wiki (or collaborative) sites for the average blogger? Grouped by content or location, etc.? How would monetization change? Would concepts like beer stocks become the norm, where groups of people shared in the benefits? (eg-page views, $, ownership) Dont’ you think that only the top 5% of bloggers would find a home in the larger “wiki” sites?
Sorry to pepper you with the questions. If this is really the future, those who can explain it and deliver it to the masses (like SiteHoppin) will have an advantage.
Oh, and I just purchased another beer stock! “Wiki” lol.
