A community portal about Wikis with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: A wiki is a type of Web site that allows the visitors themselves to easily add, remove, and otherwise edit and change some available content, sometimes without the need for registration. This ease of interaction and operation makes a wiki an effective tool for collaborative authoring. The term wiki also can refer to the collaborative software itself that facilitates the operation of such a Web site, or to certain specific wiki sites, including the computer science site WikiWikiWeb and on-line encyclopedias such as Wikipedia.
Last night’s London Wiki Wednesday was quite a success. About 40 people packed in to a room that was really only intended for about 25, but that just made it all a bit more friendly and fun. My thanks to Philip Woodgate of Goodman Jones for providing the room and the food, and Daren Oliver of Fitzrovia IT who provided the technical support on projectors and the network. The folks at Stormhoek made this a relaxed and civilised occasion with some great examples of their wine. You can see... Read Full Story

Intodit.com is a free service where people can create groups for their interests the Wiki way. Users can share their interests by building pages or starting discussions for their Wiki group. We wanted to create something that people could use to share their interests in a flexible way. The Wiki system was a starting point for this but it had to be really user friendly while still allowing people to fill in the blanks. The WYSIWYG and drag & drop system makes it possible to add text content... Read Full Story
chickapedia is a very popular search term, when I searched with the .com I was just re-directed to another web site, whilst the idea of a chickapedia is awesome there would be a lot of issues regarding copyrights etc. I mean all the content (to keep interest would have to be), images, videos, possibly adult material and these would be copyrighted - as most celebrity media is.
Not to mention the content warnings and adult warnings, so being sued for copyright infringement and adult material... Read Full Story
Wikis have been one of my key interests for more than four years now, because they bring a new level of interactivity to websites and web-based communities.
My own hands-on project in the world of wikis is Wikipages, a wiki-based local business directory that currently focuses on New York City.
Over the past year, Wikipages traffic has grown steadily as it has been linked to by bloggers and bookmarking sites. Its listings have grown to include hundreds of businesses in the city, with a... Read Full Story
