Looking for the right wiki to build up your own hobby/group/professional wiki?
I was just looking for a small nifty wiki to use as a scratchpad to collect technical tid-bits for my work/learning. Didn't want to install/administer stuff but wanted to be able to link up the tid-bits as I found connections between them. Found good candidates Tiddlywiki/Twiki using WikiMatrix's comparison table.
Too many wikis with differing features, limitations and target audiences make it tough to decide. You can easily end up spending a lot of time/effort in installing, administering, learning to use a wiki.
WikiMatrix has a wiki comparison wizard which allows you to select a small set of options to figure out which wiki s/ws are closest to what you're looking for.
Then it creates a comparison table with filterable feature-set to view only the features you're looking for in your dream wiki.
The site also allows you to compare other things like blogs etc.
