What is Kete?

Kete is open source software that you can use to create online areas for collaboration for your community. Write topics and upload images, audio, video, documents.  Discuss them all.  Link them together.

It's been called a "relational wiki" and " a mashup between content management and knowledge managment".  It's a fun way to get things done. Check out the FAQ for more about Kete. Feel free to ask your questions there!

This site runs on Kete. Other examples of kete sites can be found at http://kete.net.nz/site/kete_sites.
