So what is a wiki....
PBworksi has proved to be invaluable to us.
The new v2 interface is much easier and more powerful and the recent 200x increase in size for both free and premium wiki's will be a huge benefit to schools and charities like us. And the best thing ... no Google Ads, so no surprises that inappropriate content or products are being advertised on your site. However, the new price structure for premium wiki's is no longer as attractive as it has a number of usage restrictions.
