Wikis described in plain english
Topic: Website design
Normal web sites are usually developed offline and then presented to users as a finished product. By comparison, wikis are first presented to users as a blank slate- an empty page. A new wiki is an empty wiki, no pages, no links. Instead of a team of designers developing a web site in private, a wiki is developed in public by the users of the wiki over the life of the wiki. Wikis are websites that are revolutionising the way organisations manage knowledge and their relationships with customers.
