(2005-10-27) Local Wiki App Central Content Base

Wiki Hack idea Of The Day: have the content of a Wiki stored in a central Triple Store/Data Store, but have the WikiEngine sitting somewhere else (like a Desktop Web Server).

Why? To piggyback on someone who runs a generic data store, but isn't going to host a WikiEngine

Who?

• GoogleBase? http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/8205

• Amazon Queue? 2002-11-10-[[Amazon QueueService]]

Apr2006 update: Les Orchard built [it](http://s3.amazonaws.com/s3wiki/wiki/Start Page) on Amazon S3! And instead of running any WikiEngine anywhere, he uses the Wiky JavaScript engine!

• More notes from Les. Eek, he actually does an Http Head request for each WikiWord on the page to find out whether such a named page exists!
