Thinking Together

A prominent wiki innovator once described the wiki as "the simplest online database that could possibly work."[1] In an age of social media, blogs, and other online media, wikis stand out. Unlike the others, wikis encourage participatory creativity, particularly in the realm of knowledge creation. Although rare, such collaborative and cooperative interactions can come close to "thinking together" as described by Jiddu Krishnamurti, the great spiritual and psychological philosopher.[2]
