Agaric... what the dictionary has to say:

n.

Being Agaric

You have to want to do amazing things with Drupal. You have to be dreaming big.

Forget Drupal (OK, not really). An Agaric has passion for doing what is right for the web, and for the collective, for the people of the world off the web, too.

Building a company is a lot of work; building a collective company may be harder. None of us want to knock ourselves out only so someone can make money. That's great but if that's your primary goal, there are lots of opportunities out there in Drupal right now.

Collaborative Software - Wiki Wikis

WikiWiki software, or simply wikis, are powerful collaboration tools.

Agaric Design creates custom wikis for you and your team, using the MediaWiki software that powers the world-famous Wikipedia.

We can set up password-protected wikis that are completely private, or access-controlled wikis that are viewable by the public but only editable by users with permissions.

Agaric Design can also provide lessons in wiki terminology and editing proctices so you can make the most of the productivity-enhancing potential of group collaboration.
