San Diego, CA – September 5, 2007 – MindTouch, a leading open-source wiki and social media platform company, today announced the immediate availability of almost 100 new features for Deki Wiki, the free wiki and application platform for online communities and enterprises.

Deki Wiki is already cited as having the most advanced wiki feature set available with its state-of-the-art WYSIWYG editor and REST-based API.  What makes Deki Wiki stand out even more amongst its competition is its extensive integration with other libraries and online services such as:

    * Google Analytics for easy tracking of the wiki's traffic statistics
    * Yahoo! Content Distribution Network (CDN) for accelerated page load times
    * Tibco PageBus technology for dynamic, component mash-ups
    * Active Directory and LDAP for painless enterprise deployments
    * Lucene.Net for advanced searching in wiki pages and file attachments

Most importantly, Deki Wiki has a groundbreaking web-services extension model that allows users to create powerful application mash-ups. For example, users can compose services from Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft in a wiki page with content from databases, other applications, and the Web. In just over a month's time, dozens of new extensions for popular applications and services have been developed, providing almost 100 new features.  These include:

    * Microsoft Live mash-ups with Virtual Earth and Live Contacts
    * Google mash-ups with Maps, Blogs, News, and Videos
    * Flickr real-time slideshows and badges
    * ThinkFree viewer for Microsoft Office documents
    * Dynamic HTML elements and manipulations
    * Digg News and promotional "Digg It" badges
    * Yahoo! Finance stock tracker and charts
    * Gabbly for real-time online chat with other wiki users
    * And many, many more (Widgetbox, MySql, Latex, ImageMagick, Graphviz, ...)

Furthermore, MindTouch is releasing the Deki Wiki Desktop and Microsoft Outlook Connectors. The Desktop Connector is a client-side application that makes browsing, managing, and adding files on any Deki Wiki site drag-and-drop simple. Similarly, the Microsoft Outlook Connector provides one-click publishing of email messages and file attachments for Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express. These new desktop productivity tools further solidify Deki Wiki as the most integrated and extensible wiki for communities and enterprise collaboration. Both offerings are free and released with full source code under the GPL v2 license.

MindTouch Deki Wiki is free for unlimited users, unlimited pages, and without limitations on its feature set.  Flexible support plans are available for mission-critical deployments:

    * Basic Support ($495/yr) provides alert notifications and updates, limited support tickets, software updates and security patches.
