MLA CE WEEK 2

What is the difference between a blog and a wiki? What sort of things might be better suited for a blog and better suited for a wiki?
Wiki is a kind of book written by several authors. People can contribute their ideas and store the documents and later others can edit the contents of the book. If there are a project in a library where many people need to share the parts of the project like library magazines or newsletters, they can collaborate to make one by storing and editing their ideas online without asking for revisions.
Blog is to report of unique perspectives of certain subjects. Anyone can be a news reporter in their own blog. He want to share the news on the web and collection fo the post. People can respond by commneting blogger's ideas. It is a two way communication between a blogger and readers. In solo librarian library, Blog is a better option to promote the library events and market library services.
