There are lots of great wiki tools around for building collaborative intranets, extranets, blogs and other websites, including as repositories for user documentation and other tech writing.
Twiki is a strong open source product and Confluence (from Atlassian) comes highly recommended.
Wikis are new in the tech writing space but they are more and more getting big wraps as powerful tools for managing and displaying documentation.
A colleague, Jon Hertzig, has been using Confluence to build a wiki and technical documentation management system for Wellington-based software developers OpenCloud.
Tomorrow, midday (New Zealand time), Jon’s leading a webinar to explain the work he has been getting from this new tech writing tool. Find out more here about the webinar and how to join.
