In 1995, Ward Cunningham established the first wiki Web site, the WikiWikiWeb, for the Portland Pattern Repository Project. In the years since, a number of wiki engines have been developed in a variety of programming languages.
The underlying concept of a wiki is simple: a wiki is a Web site that allows any user to add and edit pages by using nothing more than a Web browser. This simple arrangement is quite powerful. It enables arbitrarily large numbers of volunteer editors to contribute to collaboratively created Web sites. It also enables smaller groups or even lone individuals to create and organise information with great ease. Put another way, as Cunningham once said, "[A wiki is] the simplest on-line database that could possibly work."
Business has found wikis to be useful tools that make tasks such as organizing projects and creating documentation about almost anything surprisingly easy. Perhaps the best way to grasp what wikis are, how they work and the scale and quality of documents that can grow from them, is to explore a mature, established wiki. An excellent example is Wikipedia (www.wikipedia.org).
Netcat’s standard web CMS architecture and functionality supports the creation of powerful wikis, that far exceed the simplicity and functionality requirements of a standard wiki.
