"Wetpaint is a free wiki hosting service (or wiki farm) founded in October 2005. All wiki URLs are a subdomain of "wetpaint.com". Wetpaint targets non-technical internet users who want to collaborate online, and therefore attempts to include easy to use features, such as a three step wiki creation wizard. In March 2008, Wetpaint added social networking features. Wetpaint is free of charge and supported by contextual advertising. Established educational sites are ad-free upon request."

I believe that Wetpaint can be used as an effective e-learning tool as it allows and enables students to collaborate online for projects, assignments, etc. Moreover, Wetpaint is actually quite interactive! There is live update on the homepage for each group/subject, poll can be used, and users can create their profile, 'compliment' one another and add friends!
