The benefit is obvious, while the blog allows you to do a stream-of-consciousness thinking, a wiki forces you to bring it together into a cohesive picture. This is probably more important to system-builders (like myself) but I think it is useful to show how your blogs discussions are having a tangible effect on your ideas (by linking wiki changes to individual blogs entries.) I have come to think of my wikis as my virtual office spaces. They are messy sometimes but that's where I do most of my work. Perhaps blogs are more like discussions in the virtual cafeteria? Tim,
