Wetpaint recently commissioned Harris Interactive to ask online users about their awareness of wikis, as compared to blogs, social networks, forums. The result was that only 16% of the US online population is familar with what a wiki is. Even if you just look at the online trendsetters (18-34 year olds), only 27% of those online users are familiar with wikis.

The entire set of survey results are here as an attachment.attachment.

You can also see a commentary from Ben Elowitz on what these results mean on the Wetpaint Blog.

If you discover any interesting trends or observations in the data, be sure to write about it and let us know.
