The more I look at Confluence, the more I like it. It has just about everything I want in a knowledge management tool (except the source code is $4,000).
It has ‘spaces‘ to subdivide data, profiles and groups, blogs (although only against spaces right now), comments, macros (uses Radeox) and, this is interesting, the ability to create ad-hoc heirarchies and to (this is great) create input templates (!!! yes, this is great!).
Things that would be nice: data type filtering, better delineation/customization of dashboard, taking the next step and allowing arbitrary relationship creation for pages, also subdividing nodes
- The state of Wiki APIs
- Radeox and ASL 2.0
- Tiki Wiki Usability
- TimTam – The Crunchy, Chocolate Coated, Java GUI Editor for Confluence
- Relational Model Considered Harmful
In a slightly related note, I noticed that Brandeis’ IT site is running entirely on Twiki.
