Abstract

How can wikis contribute to the improved organization of groups? Let’s assume that we want to organize a project. What benefits would we garner from a wiki? How would we have to work with it? Using the example of TWiki, we want to demonstrate that wikis, in comparison to other systems (e.g. CMS), offer a number of advantages as an integrative organizational and communicative medium. They are just as appealing for companies as they are for political, social and cultural organizations. At the same time, we wish to introduce a few attractive TWiki features.
