| Service: | Free Wiki |
| Website: | http://www.wikispaces.com/ |
| Freesource Notes: | Wikispaces lets anyone create their own wiki. The product is incredibly intuitive and full of useful features. The free version of Wikispaces requires that your wiki is public, which means no sensitive content, but this is still a great resource for collaboration, content sharing/storing, and organizing information. For free, you can have up to 2GB of storage, control who can edit your page, and have access lots of other useful management tools. The paid versions remove advertisements, let you create a custom domain, but privacy comes at their largest subscription service, so this is makes an unlikely intranet solution.  |
