Difference: TWikiSite (14 vs. 15)

• A TWiki site is a simple, satisfying, full-featured open communication environment:
  • people anywhere online can meet
  • rich Web text, images, online multimedia are easily shared
  • documents and other files can be uploaded and downloaded
  • everything works through a regular Web browser

• TWiki's parsing engine reads a text file, hyperlinks it, and converts TWiki shorthand into standard HTML, on the fly. The point is to:
  • make editing text extremely simple (to see how simple, click on the Edit link at the bottom of the page)
  • let you find information fast (WebSearch).

• In addition to being quick, as a meeting and colloboration space, The Caboteria aspires to the Zen ideals known as WabiSabi. Zen finds beauty in the imperfect and ephemeral. When it comes down to it, that's all you need.

• The Caboteria is one of many WikiWikiClones, based on the original Wiki Wiki Web, built by Wiki:WardCummingham.

• Wiki wiki means "quick" in Hawaiian. The shuttle at Honolulu Airport is called the wiki wiki bus, which is where the original Wiki web got its name.
• TWiki is short for TakeFive Wiki. (It was later discovered that Twiki is also the name of an AI robot that co-starred in the Buck Rogers... movie and TV show from 1979 - its head is in the logo.)

• TWikiEnhancementRequests is the place to add your new feature requests.
• TWikiPlannedFeatures lists of approved additions to future TWiki versions.
• TWikiHistory timelines TWiki's development.
• TWikiDocumentation is the complete reference manual.
• TWikiPages tells you how to do administrative things, like renaming topics.
• WikiCulture looks at the unique type of collaboration Wiki systems offer.
• WikiReferences links to articles and books about collaboration and Wiki technology.

NOTE: The Caboteria automatically signs new pages with your WikiName when The Caboteria is running on an intranet. If your The Caboteria installation doesn't require a log-in, The Caboteria treats all contributors the same - everyone gets the same username: TWikiGuest.
