Introducing the PBworks Twitter Widget
As the Internet evolves, PBworks evolves with it. You can see this evolution at work in the plugins we include in the product.

Introducing Image Cropping
One popular feature in PBworks is the ability to embed images on wiki pages. But what happens if you you only want to show part of an image?
