10 Things you can do with PikiWiki

Document a reunion, wedding or other event.  Everyone can contribute!

Wouldn't it be great to gather all the photos, video and stories from a class reunion, wedding or other event?  PikiWiki is designed to be collaborative.  Create and share PikiWiki pages that allow people to put their photos, video clips and captions in one place.

Even better, everyone can download the full resolution photos, video, and other files right from the PikiWiki page.  No more full mailboxes, bounced or lost emails.


Don't just send an E-mail, send a PikiWiki Page instead!

Want to send some photos? video? other files? Use the Make and Send a page feature. It is fast and easy - you don't even have to register! Drag and drop pictures right from your computer desktop, file explorer, and photo organizing software (Picasa, Photoshop Album, Corel Snapfire, etc.) into a PikiWiki page. Arrange and add captions and notes any way you want on a page. It's much more interesting and descriptive than sending a bunch of attachments.

Ever get an email with a whole bunch of high-res pictures attached? It can be time consuming to download and view each one. By sending a link to a PikiWiki page, your friends and family can view all the photos, plus descriptions by simply clicking on a web link. Click the big yellow button on Pikiwiki.com to make and send a page, or click here.

 

Your camera can shoot video clips? Share them too!

Drag video clips, music files, and photos to a PikiWiki page and arrange them anyway you like. Add some text to explain it all. Take advantage of your camera video capabilities and get all those great videos to your friends and family!

 

Make a "For Sale" flyer

If you have some stuff for sale, why not put together an online flyer with pictures and text describing the items?  Then just include the link with your posting on your community email list, Craigslist, or whatever.  Changing the description, adding photos, adding information then becomes a simple matter of changing your PikiWiki page.

 

Create an online baby book

Why not document your new Baby's development and milestones with PikiWiki pages? Include a snapshot, video clip, along with audio and text captions describing all those little milestones. Want to send video of the little one but don't want the hassle of downloading and editing video from your video camera? Just put your little one on your lap and instantly record a video clip of them right in a PikiWiki page. Send the link to Grandmas, Grandpas, Aunts and Uncles that live far away. Do that once a month for two years and you have a nice video record of their development!

 

 

Piece together your family history

Many of us have old photos from our parents or even grandparents.  Who is in the photo and what is the story behind the picture?  Scan and post some old photos into a PikiWiki page.  Invite your parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, etc. to add their own recollection of the picture right on the PikiWiki page.  Pretty soon you will have a rich story that you can then save and give to your children, nieces and nephews.  Build a virtual scrapbook, built and shared by everyone in your family - not collecting dust in a box in the garage!

 

Create a living school year book

Classmates, teachers, faculty, can build PikiWiki pages containing the stories and pictures from throughout the year.  The end result is a school yearbook that contains the contributions of the whole class.

 

 

Send a newsletter

Build a PikiWiki page with the latest family or school news and send everyone a link.  People love to write newsletters and include them with holiday cards.  Do the same online with a PikiWiki page.

 

Get opinions on an upcoming purchase

PikiWiki allows you to drag and drop photos from websites right onto a page.  Want your sister's opinion of the 5 dining room tables you are considering?  Drag pictures for all 5 from the web onto a PikiWiki page and send the link. She can comment right on the page.

 

 

Creative?  Share Creatively!

Maybe you paint, knit, build, or something else.  Why not share your work with the same creativity that you put into your art?  Quickly build a PikiWiki page or two with pictures or video of your art.  Arrange pictures, add captions, change the color of the page.  Make it yours and share with your friends and family.
