Was Web 1.0 the right boat to catch?

I just emailed (so last year!) a colleague in our exec development unit to request some information on Blooms taxonomy of educational outcomes. I received a polite reply saying that she was 'out of the office until Monday'. Luckily I found what I needed via Wikipedia... As users become more familiar with online resources, Web2.0 tools, etc. resources like Wikis will become increasingly utilized.

...which, of course, opens up the whole question of our 'claims to truth' and how we, as an institution, justify our knowledge practices. How do our criteria for validating knowledge claims stack-up against non-academic and practitioner oriented criteria? Maybe what counts are less statements that are held to correspond to an external world than accounts that have a use value, or utility: where Knowledge has given way to knowledges. Umm: chew on that!
