PBwiki has become a full-fledged platform with amazing third-party widgets that you can drop into your wikis. Here’s a demo video of how it works:
Just last week, we announced these new features.
Spreadsheets directly on your wiki (more info here)
Video upload to your wiki, or embedded from YouTube (more info here)
Event planning with the Eventbrite plugin (More info here)
Voice chat with the YackPack plugin (more info here)
Shared calendars on PBwiki (more info here) (scroll to the middle of the video)
And finally, the new beta of the PBwiki Installer, which lets you share Word documents right from MS Word. Phew.
Third-party widgetmakers and companies: We want you!
We’re now accepting submissions from third-party vendors to offer great widgets and apps for the PBwiki community. More information here.
For our users: Tell us what you want to see
We’re working to make PBwiki better and better for you. If there’s something you want to see, leave a comment here!
So we like to have fun here, too. You just can’t help but want to hack on neat projects with such talented engineers around, so Nathan, Brian, and I put together a computer that is attached to our wall with thumbtacks, displays hundreds of silly cats, and makes a sound whenever interesting things happen at PBwiki, like when someone upgrades. We tried having it make a sound whenever anyone edited, but the loud and continuous torrent of noises proved too much.
