Why? * TWiki operates like a whiteboard for the Web - it lets you and all other users write, place pictures and post links, anywhere on any page. * Not only that, everyone can EDIT anything, anywhere on a page. * At first, this may seem "too" open - it soon becomes second-nature, allowing you the freedom to edit and update the way you want to. ---+++ TWiki is a powerful Web enhancement... * TWiki's parsing engine is written in Perl. It reads a text file, and converts TWiki shorthand into standard HTML, on the fly. The point is to: * make adding and editing text simple _(How simple? Click on the *Edit* link at the bottom of the page...)_ * let you find information _fast_ ([[WebSearch][WebSearch]]) * TWiki provides an intuitive way for people to meet and collaborate, that aspires to the Zen ideals known as WabiSabi. It finds beauty in the imperfect and ephemeral and constantly evolving.

The shuttle at Honolulu Airport is called the _wiki wiki_ bus, which is where the original Wiki web got its name. * _TWiki_ is short for _TakeFive Wiki_, the name of the company where its founder worked.
