What is a Wiki
A Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and crosslinks between internal pages on the fly. This description of a Wiki was obtained from www.wiki.org. The definition most probably originated with Howard G. "Ward" Cunningham, who developed the first ever Wiki.
