Stikipad : Review

I saw Stikipad mentioned over at Pattern Hunter ages ago and thought I would give it a try.

Stikipad is a hosted Wiki.

I have written about Wikis before, sometimes about their impact and other times about about their portability (such as Instiki and VeryQuickWiki). So it’s no surprise that probably the most portable wiki is a hosted one.

Things I like:

  • Nice clean interface
  • New page function (not just an inline creation)
  • Tags (per page)
  • Default CAPTCHA feature for anonymous edits
  • Access control (Who can view – Anyone, Authors Only, Just you )
  • Built in todo lists

It’s Simple and works – which is what you want from a wiki.

If you want to check out my test StikiPad wiki – Try it at http://bergo.stikipad.com/wiki/

It’s cheap if you want a hosted Wiki ( less than $5 US per month ), but it would be nice to just install it here on brooders (which is kinda what I want).

Not sure if I will use it long term, I want to add a wiki here (on brooders) and on NeoScholar. Still I think if you needed a wiki online, this is a great option.
