mo' gifts

Meanwhile, back at the ranch -
I said "to be continued..." so Let's continue.

The word wiki is Hawaian for 'quick'

I've never been to Hawaii. It's one of the places I've always wanted to go. My mom and I always talk about going to Hawaii someday. So Hawaii is both a nice place to visit and a good place to learn new names for everyday things.

A wiki is a technology which is new. The only thing new about it is that it's now technological in nature. Other than that, it's the same thing librarians have always done. Share information. Check the information. Make information accessible.

The intriquing part is the technological speed and ease of use.
A collaborative wiki is essential for any library, just like a catalog.
