Welcome to the Green-Trust Wiki. This is a combination Dictionary and Encyclopedia. This page will eventually envelop most of the content from the old WebConX and Green-Trust (http://www.green-trust.org/2000/default.htm) web sites. Click here (http://www.green-trust.org) for our Home page.
Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and crosslinks between internal pages on the fly.
Wiki is unusual among group communication mechanisms in that it allows the organization of contributions to be edited in addition to the content itself.
Like many simple concepts, "open editing" has some profound and subtle effects on Wiki usage. Allowing everyday users to create and edit any page in a Web site is exciting in that it encourages democratic use of the Web and promotes content composition by nontechnical users. This site is a semi-restricted wiki. There is a short list of authorized contributers who have edit capabilities. The reason for this is that people come to Green Trust for answers, and the inference is that anything read on this site is authorized and tested by Green Trust.
