[edit] Software and features

PBwiki uses its own proprietry software and wiki syntax, both of which are under continuing development.

Free wikis can be made public, in which case Google advertisements are displayed on their pages, or private and only viewable by those who know the wiki password. In all cases, the wikis remain password-protected for edits.

Paid wikis are also offered, which are free of advertisements and offer extra features, including enhanced security management with secure HTTP and multiple passwords, CSS support, the ability to hide some pages in an otherwise public wiki, and more generous space allowances.

[edit] History

The beta test of PBwiki was released for public comment on Tuesday, 31 May 2005.

The site was launched in June 2005, and within 48 hours, over 1000 wikis had been created. Today there are over 150,000 wikis and over a million pages of user-created content.
