I agree with Tom, however it really depends on what you want to do with
this Wiki?
I like the extensibility of MediaWiki. But if, in fact, you just need a
small, easily installed and managed system, you might try Alan's
suggestion: TiddlyWiki
I also am a big proponent of using Google Aps where possible - including
Wiki and file management services. We build these tools for 1-2 people
when we can use Google?
Build both if you must have your own Wiki, and compare. These are all very
easy to setup.
Have Fun!
