 * Wikispaces** is a hosting service (sometimes called a wiki farm) based in San Francisco, California. Launched in March 2005, Wikispaces is owned by Tangient LLC and is among the largest wiki hosts.

To make a wiki, go here. Then, click on this button. After creating your account, visit this introductory video. Then, go to the page tab and click edit to begin making your wiki.

The "Discussion" tab is a page where users can discuss content within the specified page. "History" gives users a list of links to previous and original pages each time one has been edited. The "Notify Me" tab is set to an email to be notified each time a page has been revised either be the user or someone else. The "Page" tab has a scroll down menu to help the user with the page and with using it.
 * User can subscribe to an RSS feed for the page edits and/or the discussion.

Wiki's toolbar is much like Microsoft Word's formatting toolbar, because it has options to edit text size, font, and color. Text can also be italicized, bolded, and underlined using Wiki's toolbar. Pictures can be added onto Wikis by using the "File" button, and videos, calendars, spreadsheets, and other miscellaneous yet helpful tools can be added with the "Widget" button. Links can be added onto the page using the "Link" button. Also, tables can be created just like in Microsoft Word. Once your Wiki has been formatted to your liking, click "Save". You can add members to your wiki. If your wiki is protected, then it is public for viewing but only members of the Wiki can edit it.
