Play toy or Power tool?

I read the article "Future Changes" which discussed the use of Wikis. The article discussed Wiki use as being sanctioned and unsanctioned. The article also discussed using Wiki accounts for social interaction and collaboration. I agree with the writer of this article that a Wiki account can be useful if companies provide the workforce that is to use Wiki with proper training and up to date software. I also agree that Wiki can be used for collaboration when groups are working on a project. I feel that Wiki may be considered a playtoy and used for social communication due to the lack of training in proper usage. This Wiki also discussed a variety of topics ranging from sanctioned and unsanctioned usage to President Obama's use of his blackberry. This site provided alot of information about different topics which would be useful to those perusing this site.
