Wiki Wiki Shuttle at Honolulu


International Airport

WikiWikiWeb was the first wiki.[17] Ward Cunningham started


developing it in 1994, and installed it on the Internet
domain c2.com on March 25, 1995. Cunningham gave it the name
after remembering a Honolulu International Airport counter
employee telling him to take the "Wiki Wiki Shuttle" bus that runs
between the airport's terminals, later observing that "I chose wiki-
wiki as an alliterative substitute for 'quick' and thereby avoided
naming this stuff quick-web."[18][19]

Cunningham's system was inspired by his having used Apple's


hypertext software HyperCard, which allowed users to create
interlinked "stacks" of virtual cards.[20] HyperCard, however, was
single-user, and Cunningham was inspired to build upon the ideas
of Vannevar Bush, the inventor of hypertext, by allowing users to
"comment on and change one another's text." [2][21] Cunningham
