I found a link to barewiki.com in StefanBucher’s delicious feed (which he splices into his blog feed). The design looks so much like 37signals I was certain that this was a prototype of their new product.

A quick comparison of whois barewiki.com and whois 37signals.com shows that this is not the case, however.

Somebody got inspired by 37signal’s design. 😄

The initial page reminds me of OddWiki, of course. Just start a wiki. Except that barewiki looks far nicer, and they include the wysiwyg wiki that I usually don’t install. And they don’t accept non-ASCII characters for a pagename. “Schröder” didn’t work.

Then I noticed: Uh, how do I link to new pages? I can’t figure it out. Perhaps barewiki is just a one-page thing? Like writeboard, actually. And writeboard *is* by 37signals.
