JoiIto on why wiki is for text people, not visual people.

They think AlwaysBetOnText
Guess I'm a hardcore text person. Otherwise I wouldn't own the domain name "hangthedesigner.com" Update 2020: Wait? What? Was that a joke? Did I own that domain name? I can't even remember. I certainly don't any more.)
Anyway the comments are interesting.
- I love wiki. But I see why some people don't.
- Strange how the conversation turns into wiki vs blogs. Maybe because these people are getting into visual blogs
- Some complaints about lack of high level structure. I think wiki supports high level structure beautifully, because it allows users to create their own ... and of many different organizations
See AgainstDirectManipulation for more on my philosophy of keeping a "gap" between source text and final rendering.
