Students wishing to share class notes can try two new wiki-like services, NoteMesh and stud.icio.us. EdTechPost offers some commentary.
More than ever, professors need to add a disclaimer to their syllabi: “I am not responsible for information on class notes wikis, MySpace, Facebook, or any other websites. To be honest, I’m not even sure what those things are.”
If such tools had been available when I was a student, just think where I could be today!

I suppose my experience could be the exception, but while studying in Sweden (for an M.A) I set up a wiki for the whole course but had serious trouble getting people to actually use the darn thing. For me it was a logical next step but for several other people pen and paper still rule the day.
