Wiki in Hawaiian means "quick" - and it is that! Wiki enables online collaborative editing and document creation. Not only may multiple participants collaborate on a document, but a copy is kept of each revision of the document. Wikipedia is the largest and best known wiki - drawing on the collective intelligence of the internet to inform and engage. Excellent wiki services are available including PB Wiki (peanut butter wiki), Wikispaces. Examples of applications:
- Citizendium - Wikipedia in vetted, edited form
- Wikibooks open content textbooks!
- Google Docs (check out this url for SSL access: http://tinyurl.com/2yudz2)
- Zoho
- Ray's Sample Course Syllabus Wiki (password=otel)
