• With so many of my projects calling for collaborative development of e-learning solutions, I've found myself spending more and more time on wikis. With free sites for educators, and unparalleled community tools, WetPaint wikis are the backbone of Twitter for Teachers, and The Golden Fleece Wiki.  Rodd Lucier

• "I have used Wetpaint's free wiki application for creating sites related to presentations I have given and to encourage collaboration after the fact. The collaboration part has not always been that successful, but most find Wetpaint really easy to use. It has support for "widgets", but there is advertising."  Gerry Paille
