Jim’s Wikiwyg<\/a> implementation, at one point apparently linked from wikiwyg.com<\/a>,
\nis a brilliant experiment with client-side, Javascript-based wiki
\nrendering.  There’s a bit of a naming conflict at the moment in
\nthe blogosphere, but he’s getting back into coding and writing, so
\nhopefully he can work it out.  I would love to see a new revision
\nout soon, and collaboration with the developers who were discussing new
\nuser-friendly editing ideas at Wikimania earlier this month.<\/p>\n

For a fine example of the tool at work, here’s an examlpe of  Wikiwyg on nested tables<\/a>,
\nusing an article comparing web browsers.  Note how the page starts
\nloading almost immediately (slowed down by his single server), and
\ncontinues smoothly to render down the page.<\/p>\n

Update<\/span> from Jim (Aug 31<\/span>):<\/span> <\/p>\n

By the way, I’ve had a bit of correspondence about naming. We agreed to call<\/span>
\nour projects by the full names <\/span>Wikiwyg.org<\/a> and Wikiwyg.net<\/span>, and to post a<\/span>
\ndisambiguation note at the top of both our home pages as soon as my site is<\/span>
\nproperly up.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m quite happy with this. The <\/span>Wikiwyg.net<\/span><\/span><\/span> guys seem to have acted in good<\/span>
\nfaith and weren’t aware of my project’s name when they started theirs.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Cheers to all involved for being good-natured about this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
