Foul Writer’s World

Foul Writers World Wiki

by noel on May.18, 2008, under Technical Communication, Web 2.0

I have decided to start experimenting with wikis. Over the next few weeks I will be installing a few wikis for experimentation purposes.

The first wiki platform I have installed is probably the best known one, MediaWiki.

MediaWiki is a open source wiki platform that can be run using either Apache or IIS and PHP. MediaWiki is also the wiki platform that powers the grand daddy of all wikis, wikipedia.

My MediaWiki installation can be found at:

www.foulwritersworld.net/wiki

Feel free to register for the wiki and tryout the wiki platform for yourselves.

For more information about MediaWiki, check out the MediaWiki web site at:

    Hi Noel, I’m not too familiar with wikis but at work I’ve been exploring the wiki package that my company uses — Confluence by Atlassian. So far I like it a lot and found their online documentation very useful. Sarah Maddox, the tech writer who documents Confluence has a blog (http://ffeathers.wordpress.com/) about working with wiki.
