Introduction
My very first wiki site was created on the 5th of October 2007 using a software called
PMWiki. It is a text based wiki, very simple to setup and requires no database behind it. To this date, I still use a version of PMWiki to consolidate the documentation of my work. This site, however, uses TikiWiki, a robust content management system but a bit more complex to administer. I started this on the 1st of December 2008 and until the 15th of June 2010, it was running on version 2.2. I've finally got around upgrading it to version 4.1.
At first, I created this wiki for the purpose of learning how to setup and maintain one. My aim was to stick, as much as possible, to the out-of-the box features. I have acquired lots of styles in PMWiki but largely because of plugins made available by generous developers. After a while, however, its the native capability of the software that are often used.

This wiki is intended for personal use. My wife and children wants a single place where they could check the recipes they like to cook, the location of DVDs or whether we have a copy or not, the location of CDs or DivX we are accumulating.
As for me - I also keep a record of budgets, cycling logs, blood pressure logs, food diary, etc. All other pages are proving to be useful every now and then. I store electronic copies of manuals like one that is used for the table clock or cycle computer which seems to be always missing when the DST or regular time switch over.
Sometimes - I cut and paste advices from the net because I know they apply to me. It saves having to go looking for those settings and advices again.
There's also one more reason why I'm switching to TikiWiki - it's editing style is closer to MediaWiki - the engine used for WikiPedia.
