PeanutButterWiki or pbwiki is a commercial wiki farm run by David Weekly. Free, password-protected wikis can be set up in what the site claims is "about as much time as it takes to make a peanut butter sandwich", hence the name. Wikis can be made viewable by the public (in which case a Google ad is displayed on their pages), or may only be viewable by a select few. In all cases, wikis remain password-protected for edits. A premium program, which offers additional features, is also available.

The first beta of Peanut Butter Wiki was launched on Tuesday, 31 May 2005 ^*.
