Why?
-------

Suppose you have a small consulting/service shop—what should you use for a website? What is it for? How do you package and sell your knowledge? We shall explore a few examples out there, mostly MS-MVP sites, comment on structure and usability.

What?
--------

Blog, wiki, or both? When should a content be in a wiki and when in a blog?

How?
-------

* Using WordPress and MediaWiki to drive a promotional & customer support site.
* Installation hurdles to overcome.
* Customer reactions.
* Benefits and drawbacks.

Extras
--------

Wiki to go; run a wiki from an USB stick. Ideal for managing notes and "private" knowledge.
The fastest way to introduce wikis into an office (corporate) environment.
