The most well know wiki is Wikipedia, a innovative world encyclopedia than anyone can edit. Wiki is Hawaiian for hurry hurry, and adopted by the computer world, wiki being a webpage that anyone can edit, add to. Simply it's a collaborative website, very much in tune with Web 2.0's interactivity.
Wiki's being a 2 way street of information have their pro's and con's. The good part being that anyone with or information on a subject can add their knowledge to the "pool." The con is that unverified or unaccredited information sometimes gets through. The user therefore needs to use caution when searching for reference on a wiki.
