In late 2007 I created a separate [http://convivialtools.net Convivial Tools website]. At that time I had already created a significant number of pages about wikis on the present site (wikis being a good example of a "convivial tool"). It thus seemed appropriate to consacrate the present site entirely to the subject of [[Wiki]]s, and to the people, websites, software and concepts relating thereto.

However, my attention soon turned elsewhere, and the present site stagnated during all of 2008 and much of 2009. Meanwhile I realized that wikis have gone mainstream, and that the subject has become both banal and overly vast.
