Hello,

Is anyone familiar with any publications that discuss using a wiki in  
qualitative research?  In other words, studies where the researcher  
actually used the wiki as a method to facilitate interaction between  
researcher and participants for whatever reason?  I have looked  
through qualitative research journals, the Journal of Computer- 
Mediated Communication, and New Media & Society but can't locate  
anything.

I would think there has to be something out there but perhaps I'm  
looking in the wrong places?  Thanks in advance for any insight.

Mike
