Well, wikis aren't hard to set up, and it's not necessary to allow anyone else edit access to them. I run one at work to maintain my documentation and nobody else can edit it.
On the blog side, it really depends on how you organize it. If you use some blogging software like MovableType (not a specific recommendation but it's what I'm most familiar with), it's searchable, you can categorize things down as much as you want and assign multiple categories. The templates are configurable and archivable, so you can pretty much arrange how the information's organized.
Not that the above is very helpful but it's my $.02. :)
