THE WIKI READER SOFTWARE
There was no greate distinction for the first five years or so between the code used to run a wiki and the content on it, partly becuase there was nearly a 1:1 correspondence between the two: many of the original wiki administrators were programmers, and they tended to create their own new, or modified, version of the software to run their own wikis. "WikiWikiWeb" for a while referred to four things: the website hosted on c2.com, the software used to run it (written in Perl), and later any user-editable website (what is now known as a wiki), and any application used to run such a site (now known as wiki software). Posted on the original "wiki", the Portand Pattern Repository sadly the original seems to no longer be online So, the program slants in favor of authors at some inconvenience to readers. The program wants everyone to be an author. You're browsing a database with a program called Wiki Wiki Web. But they come to trust and they make something that surprises them in terms of its value. According to Ward Cunningham People discovered that they can create something with other people, that they don't even know. Also, the wiki was inspired by HyperCard (and HyperText).Īlso important about wiki's was the mode of collaboration it allowed for. And to be moving from read to write mode. The wiki was made for speed and easiness of writing and publishing on the Web. [ Interview with him about the context of the Wiki Wiki Web) This wiki hosted the "Portland Pattern Repository" and c2.com. Ward Cunningham made the Wiki Wiki Web, an early version of wiki software. But MediaWiki is not the only wiki out there, there are many more wiki software projects: Dokuwiki, Tiddly Wiki, Zim wiki, etc: Wiki Wiki Web MediaWiki is the name of the software that this wiki is running on. I learned many things from this but wiki wiki is the word that sticks the most. I did pick up a book about the language before my return home. I said what? He explained that wiki wiki meant quick. The airport counter agent directed me to take the wiki wiki bus between terminals. Wiki wiki is the first Hawai'ian term I learned on my first visit to the islands.
