A wiki is a website you can edit. The word comes from "wikiwiki", which is a Hawaiian word for "fast". Wikis are designed to be collaborative so people can work together on a project. It's possible to build up and change a lot of content very quickly. Connec+ipedia is a wiki so that it can grow and change with the nonprofit community.

Wagn is the type of wiki software that we use for connec+ipedia. It is quick and easy to edit, but it is also powerful and database driven. This allows us to create a vast resource of links and connections, rather than a repository of articles. Created by Grass Commons, Wagn is a free, open-source Ruby on Rails application.
