Hello,

Here in the NY hall of Science education department we use an  
internal wiki to host files, keep each other updated on projects,  
house links and other useful  tasks. It has been a valuable way to  
keep a rather large department connected and is useful as a digital  
locker. We use wikispaces. I have also collaborated via wiki on a  
number of projects and I find preferable to many other ways to  
communally work on documents/ideas.

Maybe a ASTC wiki on different wiki use?
