Apparently IBM has shown QEDWiki:

"Extensions to wikis that lets people "easily link together applications and services that are on the Web." David Sink and Joel Farrell show the QEDWiki demo. They show a table of contacts and then turn it into a database. They do a "mash up" with Google Maps and weather data. Right now, it requires on-screen programming, but they assure us it'll be much more user-friendly when it ships.... It's php-extensible. It uses AJAX."

It seems that it's going to be a product since they say it will "ship". It's great to have an Application Wiki in PHP to spread this type of tool. TWiki is the closest to an Application Wiki in the "Perl" world and JotSpot is one in the "proprietary" world. And XWiki is the Open Source Application Wiki in Java. The .Net platform is clearly missing some good wikis (there is FlexWiki which is Open Source from Microsoft).

Note that IBM has also some XWiki's install internally, as well as many other wikis, as have many big companies.
