How do I unlink personal and professional wikis? (Not "Mom" at work!)
I have a pbwiki account that I use for multiple wikis, two personal, and one for a class I am teaching. Can I break these into two separate accounts in some way? I inadvertently linked both my work and home e-mails to both wikis, and didn't realize it until I saw that my posts on my class site were labeled "Mom"!
I’m faintly embarrassed!

Inappropriate?The best way to do this would be to create two different accounts and have the wikis divided between them. If you have gmail, you can use the following cheat so you don't need two email addresses: if you have somebody@gmail.com as your email address, emails to somebody+word@gmail.com will go to the same address, but PBwiki will take them as separate email addresses. So you could have somebody@gmail.com be one account, and somebody+mom@gmail.com as the other.

Inappropriate?Be sure to keep a careful eye on which account you are using. You cannot log in to both accounts at the same time, and switch back and forth between windows. If you switch identities in one window, all other logged-in windows will assume the new identity. Rather than creating multiple accounts, PBwiki should do like Google Groups does, and allow you to set the publicly-viewable username on a case-by-case basis. That way, you could have one account, but you're "Mom" on some wikis, and "Julie" on others.
