Wiki?

[jrdouce]

I see "wiki" showing up more and more in posts, here and elsewhere. I'm familier with Wikipedia, but I see references to other Wiki apps. I'm currently in a bit of a technological cul-de-sac, so I'm not not up to date with current technology trends. Can someone refer me to a site where I can learn more about Wiki technology, or is more of an appliation philosophy?

Thanks for your help.

If you're familiar with Wikipedia, then their definition of a wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki) would be a good place to start.

I like the idea of using a wiki to implement GTD, as it allows more flexibility than an outliner app. (These usually have some kind of tree-like hierarchy.)

I have just started using Instiki (http://www.instiki.org/), and so far, I like what I see.

If you don't need to access your lists from multiple locations, or if you want to store them on a PDA, then Note Studio (http://www.dogmelon.com.au/ns/Home%20Page.shtml) (search this forum for more info) could be for you (free demo, $50 to buy, IIRC).

HTH,
