A Wiki is a tiny Hawaiian bus used to shuttle tourists around. And to WikiWiki is to shuttle back and forth amongst pages in a WikiWikiWeb.
A Wiki Web is a collaborative tool for having semi-permanent discussions about a variety of topics. It is an electronic blackboard of sorts with a few more features:
The contents are global... Well visible from any computer with a modern browser on it. It has hyperlinks... You can create a jump from one page to another in a very simple way. see TextFormattingRules? and HelpPage? The pages are versioned... just in case someone wipes an important piece of information away.
