TWiki is one of several flavors of a wiki web. Wikis are websites that anyone can edit. I like the TWiki variety cause it is more inviting for non-techies (I installed a TWiki at my last job and have something like 80% of the company using it regularly). Check out <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://twiki.org";>http://twiki.org</a>. The original wiki is <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki";>http://c2.com/cgi/wiki</a>.

Wikis are great for intranets where lots of people have stuff to contribute and you're not concerned about the resulting web pages being perfect, saying the &quot;right&quot; thing, or being graphically dense.

Wikis are great for development teams to document their processes. Requirements docs, progress reports, QA details, and such can be kept in a wiki and updated by anyone on the team.

Wikis are wonderful for tech support organizations to keep their collected wisdom.

In a nutshell, a wiki is just a website with an edit button at the bottom -- often a scary thing to managers and usually a wonderful thing to worker bees.
