WiKi


Saw this information on WiKi from VeerChand Bothra's Blog. This a very interesting concept and looks like the best way to have a page in which anybody can edit the informatioin. He provides a link to the article susning.nu's founder, Lars Aronsson summarizes the experience from the first nine months of operation of Sweden's biggest Wiki website. From the article

A Wiki website is a hypertext on steroids. Any user can create or edit any page on the site using a simple web browser, and all information processing is done on the server side. Wiki sites are powerful tools for collaboration in closed work groups, but can also be used for the general public on the open Internet.


The article provides a very good introduction and history to the WiKi movement.
