Blogs seem to be better for posting info and messages--like a listserv. It builds on to previous posts, so all the info is in one thread. With a listserv, it can be confusing to see who has replied to which message and to keep track. I'm still getting used to the blog world, but I've already learned alot.
Wikis are useful for group editing of a document, and keeping a record of the changes. In MS Word, you can track changes, but if many people are involved, it gets to be a confusing mess.
Wikipedia is an amazing resource. While it may be necessary to check its sources, it is often a good place to start learning about a topic. (I'm not sure I would use it for health info--and MedlinePlus is more authoritative.)
