Now if people would just use our scienceblogging.com wiki (which, btw, was down all day but is fixed now) to co-ordinate their travel and hotels, and to add questions to the discussions before the conference starts....
I've used wikis with my graduate students for two semesters now -- and it's easy enough for all of them to use, even those who've been out of school for 10 or 20 years. I will use this video too -- both for them to learn how to post to a wiki, and to learn how to evaluate other people's wikis!
