Collaborative web page authoring. By Ewoks!

One of the programmers at work was talking about the new features for the time keeping software that we use. He mentioned that there was a new wiki feature.

One of the other programmers excitedly exclaimed "I want a Wicket!" At that point, I figured that they were probably thinking of Wicket W Warrick, one of the Ewoks from the Empire Strikes Back.

I gently explained that the term used was "wiki", not "Wicket." (Visions of Emily Litella danced in my head.)

It does rather suggest cutesy teddy bear looking aliens collaboratively producing web pages.
