Zoho is pushing their wiki as "wiki for the rest of us," with some nice features like a WYSIWYG editing interface with spell checking, revision history and difference comparisons.

Creating a wiki is one-click simple, just fill in the form information and the wiki will be added under your username with the address something like: mywikiname.wiki.zoho.com. Note that the name of your wiki is not editable after you create it, though you can change the title at any time.

Under the settings button you can control outside access to your wiki by making it public, private or limited to a select group of members.

Wikis are customizable with number of skins available and in addition, users can upload a logo or other image. There's also an option to control the position of the nav bar on the public wiki pages.

Zoho wikis can handle a number of embedded Zoho objects like Zoho Sheet charts, Zoho Show slide shows and Zoho Creator applications, as well as outside content like YouTube videos and more. Any changes to the Zoho object are automatically synced both ways whether the edit is made in the Wiki or the Zoho app.

In total Zoho users can create three wikis and each of those wikis can contain an unlimited number of pages. 

Like most of Zoho's offerings the new Wiki feature is free for registered users.
