While blogs and wikis can't be compared due to different functionality (blogs are largely about individuals and broadcasting, wikis are largely about working as a group and co-creating)...I'm getting the feeling that, in the long term, wikis will receive greater (widespread) adoption. Derrick de Kerckhove states that blogging is about publishing our network. Wikis, in my eyes, are about using our network to achieve particular aims.
A few recent wiki articles:

David versus Goliath (wikis and Blackboard): "But can Web 2.0 tools truly replace something as big as a CMS? In my analysis, the answer is a resounding yes. Whereas Blackboard was designed for instructors, wikis were made for everyone."
