Not sure if that last sentence was also meant to be an 
example :-) ...but just like that.  Or "my native language" 
or if you are a child and going back to "my home" when 
technically, it is your parents that own it (or maybe you're 
a really rich child :-) ).

But like what Chad pointed out, there are lots of people out 
there that maintain wiki's for only one user.  I do also and 
while it might go against the spirit of what a wiki is, I 
find it replaces a "permanent notebook" since I can search 
through it easier than multiple pages.
