I have been baffled myself too when I saw my first WikiWiki too, but the fact is that there are plenty of WikiWikis around which are working pretty well (see the original WikiWiki at http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiWikiWeb). So, either people are not so ugly after all, or they have pretty good backups. Pick your choice. Matej
