Forum or Wiki???

2011-04-15 by Russ Com at ComC

I have participated in both forums and wikis. Both are very useful. The 
wiki is a nice place to work out details and gradually refine the 
information. On a forum bad data tends not to get corrected except by 
follow up posts. Tracing this all down can be a lot of work.


In some cases I have gone through forums and extracted the data to a 
wiki, removing information that later posts indicated was problematic. 
It is a lot of work.


So getting to the point. I am fairly active on a wiki called Open 
Circuits. They have a page devoted to PC Boards 
http://opencircuits.com/Printed_Circuit_Boards . Since it is a wiki any 
member of this forum can sign up ( or not even sign up ) and add 
materials, either to that page or new pages linked to it. It might be 
nice for example if we had a page that listed printer models, toner 
transfer method, and feature size that people found they could easily 
achieve.
