A wiki is a type of collaborative workspace that encourages users to contribute to or modify content. By using a simple web interface, a community can collaborate on developing a document or Web page, no matter where they're located. Wiki examples include community websites, content management and event management, etc. APPS.gov NOW offers two Wiki tools – MediaWiki and TWiki. Learn more about Wikis or watch a video.
