Personal wikis allow people to richly link information on their desktop or mobile computing devices the same way a community wiki links information across the internet. Thus people who like the wiki philosophy of organizing information may find personal wikis useful.
Single-user application of multi-user wikis
Many wikis are designed for concurrent use by multiple users. However, given sufficient skill and motivation, an individual user can install and run any of them for personal use. This may require installing additional software, for example a Web server, a DBMS, or a WAMP or LAMP software bundle. The user can prevent access to the wiki from outside the local computer.
Some individuals use password protected wikis running either on their own webservers or hosted by third parties. This has the advantage that the personal space can be accessed from any web browser, at home, at work, on a PDA, at an internet cafe etc. Edits made on one machine are immediately accessible on the others.
Multi-user wikis with personal editions
- MoinMoin has MoinMoin Desktop Edition - It is written in Python. It is for Windows, Linux and Mac users.

- ScrewTurn Wiki - It is written in C# and based on the ASP.NET 2.0 platform. It is for Windows users.
Wikis designed for personal use
There are also wikis specifically designed for personal use. Their feature set often differs from traditional wikis; examples are:
- Dynamic tree views of the wiki (These are useful because wikis built for personal useage are often small.)
- Drag and drop support for images, text and video, mathematics
- Use of OLE and Linkback to allow wikis to act as relational superstructures for multiple desktop type documents
- Multimedia embedding, in particular wiki can link to internal aspects of movies and sound tracks and stores notes / comments
- Macros and macros constructors. Also often support for alien macros so the wiki can act as a multi scripting macro system
- Built in sharing (a built in lite easy to configure server)
- much faster handling
