Wikis to gain mainstream adoption by 2010

Ferris Research is reporting that Wiki’s will gain mainstream adoption by 2010 inside the corporate metasphere.

Wikis are a terrific way to build a knowledge base. Users can contribute and edit entries. The knowledge base grows organically. As Wikipedia has proved, the content can have levels of accuracy that compare with far more rigorous approaches. Many organizations will build a shared repository of information about the organization. By 2010, wikis will be the natural vehicle for such “internal wikipedias.”

While I can see some companies using internal wiki’s I still think good old fashioned blogs are by far and wide the best way to go. But that’s just me. The guy who makes a living setting up blogs. I struggle to use wiki’s myself but am experimenting more and more with them as time goes on.
