Is it possible to use google docs as a wiki?

Question

is it possible somehow to easily use google docs as a wiki? I mean, I create a first document, then add a link to another one and so on, so the procedure is easy and fast and the different docs files are esaily organized

Answer 1

yes.

but you have to manually keep track of the urls to the documents. and you have to setup manually the edit permissions per document as well.

consider using sites.google.com.

Answer 2

Google Docs does not make a good wiki.

• Optimized for printed page, not viewing online (page margins, document margins)
• Always in edit mode
• No mechanism to dynamically embed content or especially lists of documents in another document
• No friendly URLs for documents
• Does not link documents nearly as easy as in a wiki (requires interaction with menus/mouse and copying full URLs to documents)
• Does not support text zooming fully (appears to work, but try it, hit CTRL-+ and some document components often don't display properly. Basic documents work fine.)
• No cross-document consistent styling
