What we use this Wiki for
Collaboration
Wikis excel at collaboration. Wikis are made up of a series of unique pages with evolving content. A Wiki, as a whole is an organic means of organizing a chaotic lot of information among a vast group of people. It's also the best way for us to share our efforts with the rest of the world.
Content Management
Wikis can hold a lot of content. Instead of trying to implement a complex CMS, assigning permissions, worrying about anonymous FTP, etc., we just say "throw it on the wiki".
Reference
Who we are, What we do/did, When we do/did it, Where we do/did it, Why we do/did it and How we do/did it are all here. From our policies to our projects, it's all here somewhere.
