Peanut Butter Wiki
There are many wiki engines out there, see Wikimatrix’s comparison tool. Some have corporate-geared features and storage space, others are more appealing to school educators and students. Some are engines for people willing to run them on their own servers, others are on a domain/subdomain basis.
Out of all those, one seems to appeal to me a lot: Peanut Butter Wiki (or PBwiki). Simple to use, feature-rich and now with a lot more storage for the free accounts, PBwiki has no ads and is unbeatable in the feature arena. Very clean and user-friendly interface.
Despite the name (that I am not really fond of – it doesn’t say much about a “wiki” – but hey…), this is a great tool to consider for both business, academic and personal collaborative projects. (You can upgrade to a custom domain name).
