History

In 2005, David Weekly began developing software to build privately hosted wikis through a website, which he named "PeanutButterWiki"[6] The company's original name stems from the concept that "making a wiki is as easy as making a peanut butter sandwich".[7] The original beta test of PBworks was released for public comment on 31 May 2005.[8]

The site was formally launched in June 2005. In early 2008 the company launched mivo tv PBworks 2.0 and Weblocal, an improved version with a new layout, more granular security, and a more easily customizable color scheme. PBworks also launched a Mobile Edition in early 2009. Weblocal Hospedagem

In June 2008 the company hired Jim Groff, a former employee of Oracle Corporation and Apple Inc ., for its new CEO. David Weekly, the former CEO, remains its Chief Product Officer and Chairman.[1]

Today PBworks contains over 6.91 million pages of user content.[9]

 

Software

PBworks is hosted on an all-Linux cluster.[9] PBworks uses its own proprietary software. It added WYSIWYG editing in early 2007, and limited HTML source editing in 2008. Since 2009, the wiki is entirely HTML based, and original wiki markup language is no longer supported.[10]

Users can create free basic wiki workspaces, or upgrade to a premium plan to access additional features, such as enhanced security features, customization through CSS, and more storage space. Workspaces can be public or private (only viewable by those who have been invited to join the workspace).

The software is only available in English.


Usage

A number of businesses and corporations use PBworks to create private wikis for employees; one case study described a legal firm which had transitioned to PBworks as a document management system in order to cut their IT costs.[11] Major companies using PBworks as a host for internal documents include CafePress.com, Capgemini, Deloitte, the Financial Times , Kiva, and Wideload Games.[12] Educational groups include the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago, the University of Wisconsin–Madison, Wayne State University, DePaul University, and University of Toronto.
