Part I. Introducing Wikis

Introducing Wikis

In this part . . .

In this part, we show you the world of wikis in all its beauty and complexity. In Chapter 1, we explain that wikis are not just one product but a style of product that has many exemplars. You can see how and why Ward Cunningham invented wikis. And you can read how wikis are not blogs, forums, or other styles of Web sites.

Chapter 2 is where newbies can get their hands wet and type an initial wiki page. Chapter 3 shows how wikis are used for all sorts of reasons. Chapter 4 surveys Wikipedia, the most famous wiki in the world. We wish you good wiki-ing.
