WikiWikiWeb as a Tool for Collaboration
Kevin Curran, Kiera Doherty and Roisin Power

Abstract: With the growth and increased usefulness of the World Wide Web it has become an effective means of collaboration between users’. WikiWiki meaning “very quickly” is a collaborative web server allowing multiple users to “collaborate” in editing pages without the need for user-names, passwords, or any other security mechanisms. This paper presents the results of building a ‘WikiWikiWeb’ web-site consisting of several ‘Wiki’ pages. The site was evaluated by students who carried out a series of tasks in order to measure the collaborative ‘power’ of the Wiki environment and the behavior of the students when faced with a site that allow them to freely edit and add content to their peer group’s pages.
