wiki

I haven't been paying any attention to the Wiki world.
I finally decided to try it out as a better way to quickly organize and edit info (I have a mania for organized lists of links).

Tried Friki, but I didn't like its link syntax. It's nice though in that it's just a .war you can drop in a Tomcat server.

In this process, I discovered that Wiki has Yet Another syntax for editing text and links, different from HTML. Sigh.

Am now playing with SnipSnap. I like its (nonstandard) link syntax and extensive out-of-the-box capabilities. It's a completely standalone system.

I made my first Wikipedia modifications: I didn't like some of the stuff in the List of well-known ports (computing) page so hey presto, I deleted some of the (non-registered) ports and added some explanatory text.
