Quick – what’s a wiki?

If you had to look it up, you probably used a web site that allows users to add, modify or delete content easily and quickly. You probably found out also that “wiki” is a Hawaiian word meaning “quick” and the first wiki software, WikiWIkiWeb, was created by Ward Cunningham and named after the Wiki-Wiki Shuttle at the Honolulu Airport which he rode between terminals.

Quick as a wiki, here are the top free wiki sites.

Before you continue reading about the Top 10 Free Wiki Sites there is a special announcement we would like to share with you.

10. Wikimapia

A list of the top ten free wiki sites

Wikkimapia was created by two Russian entrepreneurs inspired by the slogan “Let’s describe the whole world!” It combines the features of Google Maps with Wikipedia to allow contributors to add information about any location, from geographic info to restaurants to any new category that might be of interest. The info is searchable or available just by clicking on a map location.

9. Wiktionary

You’ll never sing “There’s a bathroom on the right” again when singing along with your favorite Creedence Clearwater Revival song after checking out the correct lyrics on LyricsWiki. Search by song, artist, album or by the hometown of the artist – did you know that Nuuk, Greenland is the home of rock band Chilly Friday?

7. RecipesWiki

A list of the top ten free wiki sites

Don’t visit RecipesWiki if you’re hungry because you’ll spend the next hour printing off recipes for great dishes posted by its contributors.
