How to get a Wiki

• Your school may already run a wiki service.

• Commercial wiki farms provide wiki space either for a fee or advertising space.
  • http://www.editthis.info provides ad-driven space.

Note: Not all wikis use the same language or interface as this one. This uses MediaWiki the software behind Wikipedia. There are other wiki environments [1] such as the original WikiWikiWeb.
