[Web4lib] Wiki, Great Idea

[D.H. Mattison]

Thanks K.G. You didn't add whether you've updated the entries in those two
wikis so they at least reference RFID interoperability and standards.
Another subscriber told me of a third site, which includes a wiki, called
libsite.org, http://libsite.org, a site specifically built for users to
submit, discuss, and rate library Web sites" created by
http://chicagolibrarian.com/ (Leo Robert Klein).

Off to blog Libsite.org....

I'm "with" D.H. on not duplicating work done elsewhere. That said, I took a
controversial topic-RFID - and compared it on both "LIS" wikis. The
differences (and similarities) are interesting. These are hardly nonpartisan
fact sheets, and are good examples of "ye shall be known by your footnotes."
Having some familiarity with the subject, I felt both pages were profoundly,
well, wrong, sometimes to comical effect.

What both pages also have in common is they don't include any discussion of
interoperability and standards, even though that is a very big development
in the RFID world.

anyway... that's a tangent from "do we need another wiki."
