I understand -- thanks for letting me know!

more control, less cost, customizable, skinnable, can host it on my own domain, or sub-domain, etc.
nothing wrong with pbwiki, I just realized I've sort of, well, outgrown it. I want to mess about with my own wiki, maybe learn a bit of coding, etc.

Hi Babak, I'm curious: How come you want a downloadable equivalent rather than using PBwiki online?

I've heard great things about MindTouch but am confused, is it free or incredibly expensive? their site is a bit confusing.

thanks clif, is this server side?
I went to wikimatrix but there are sooooo many out there it is mind boggling to narrow it down to just ONE!

thanks!

Hi Babak,

There are some pretty cool freely downloadable wiki packages at this site:
http://www.wikimatrix.org/

Keep a close eye on the system and software requirements. Most of the wikis run on PHP or ASP.

If you have to choose, I'd pick a PHP system. It's free to download and install as well. You can find PHP Triad for Windows here:

Hi guys, I'm looking for an installed equivalent to pbwiki.

That is, the features of pbwiki, yes, including the premium versions, but installed on my own server or computer, rather than on pbwiki's.

Thanks
