The IHT has a great article on Curriki, an innovative e-learning platform developed on top of XWiki. I already blogged about Curriki some time ago. Since then, the website has been undergoing continuous improvement as a course manual creator has been released. Says the article:
~They can also use its online tools, built by Sun and a French open-source company called XWiki, to share resources with others, write a textbook or build a curriculum out of content available on the site, which is so far available in English and Hindi.~
XWiki was chosen by Scott McNealy & Sun Microsystems thanks to its unique combination of Java technology, Open-Source & advanced features. They made XWiki the perfect platform to build Curriki upon, catering for easy information sharing, simple content creation and great user interaction at the same time.
