Wiki's getting more sophisticated

The Pbwiki team have announced some new innovations - see below. I was beginning to think that wiki's were a bit of a flash in a pan but if these sorts of innovations keep coming I think they will begin to catch up with blogs as an alternative way of working together and communicating.
