A Wiki for my novel!

Wow! Finally a free wiki I can put my novel's universe in. A dictionary all my own. A fantastic sharing tool; get a peanut butter wiki for yourself today!!! Folks from my reading group, and NaNoWriMoans who sign up can see what's inside. Users can make their wikis public too, to share their intellectual property and destroy their copyright rights at will.

Lowdown is simple: pick a subdomain name, i.e., fred, fork over a password for you and your friends to use, and start wikking! Took me about a half hour to learn wiki style (as opposed to HTML), only to learn that I could use HTML for almost everything anyway. Wikis can be kept private, so only those with the password can enter, or public, which still prevents those without passwords from editing your stuff. David Weekly and his merry band of sleep-deprived gnomes have done a fantastic job.

I say this with the howl of slavering joy only a coffee-inflamed writer can scream: a free wiki frees the writer!

David, you're a genius!

(I think I might need to cut back a bit on the whole coffee thing...)
