(A cookie for the person who can tell us what hip-hop song the title of this entry is referring to.)
While CML has become sick, absolutely SICK with wikis, I thought I'd explore another library's attempt to be on the cutting edge: Des moines, Iowa!
http://desmoinespubliclibrary.pbwiki.com/
Their wiki is a spartan affair, but it is loaded with DM history that anyone who is allowed to post can ask questions about and receive information about instantly. Like all wikis it is a tool that is largely what you make of it, and as a long-term account of information with quick-turnaround should the wind of information change, it works. Most wikis do if they get traffic.
This isn't as groundbreaking as it seems at first glance: CMLSi has featured an open forum for years that while largely unused, is the basis for the modern wiki.
