- In January 2008 a multidisciplinary team launched a project to develop a web space aimed to share scientific knowledge in the hospital’s intranet.. The project evolved from the intranet to the Internet using a CMS (Content Management System) application with several free software tools. Wikinvestigacion (http://www.wikinvestigacion.org) is a collaborative website that encompasses all the hospital’s teaching and research resources, making available several tools for its development, conservation and diffusion. It includes five different areas with separate access privileges: research groups, library, teaching and research news, a forum, and an area used for preservation and diffusion of contents. The project was presented since the beginning to the hospital Directive board, but for the moment the board has not pronounced itself on the possible inclusion of Wikinvestigacion in the hospital’s webpage. In 2010 the model and general design of the site and the tools employed were published in “Health Information and Libraries Journal” After two years and a half of its start, it seemed of interest to look back at the path that had been walked and reconsider the steps ahead.The developers Wikinvestigacion were asked to answer to four open questions and to agree in a consensus document. The four main points were addressed: definition of the initial objectives of Wikinvestigacion, and assessment of the degree of achievement, what objectives were not achieved, and what where the main reasons of these failures, what unexpected results derived from the initial project and what were their expectations on the future of the project. The conclusions were that Web 2.0 tools improve research, teaching and patient care in the hospital by promoting the interconnection of different virtual communities. Certain problems regarding confidentiality, intellectual property, scientific reliability and fear of loss of control may explain the reluctance of established structures. However, these drawbacks are more than offset by the building of a collective intelligence able to check and endorse its contents.
