More on blogs, wikis and discussion forums
Blogs, wikis and discussion boards are useful but every tool has it's own weaknesses and strengths.
Discussion forums are useful for exchange based on a vivid discussion between several persons.
A blog normally is written by one author, the readers can add their thoughts by comments. The author herself can formulate the ideas of the comments in a new contribution. If there are too many comments - a blog used as kind of discussion forum - it's not userfriendly anymore.
A WIKI is for formulating text together. It's not that straightforward to reproduce long discussion threads in a WIKI. In contrast to a blog a WIKI has more authors.
Based on the explicit type of exchange and reflection wanted a discussion forum, blog or WIKI can be used.
