PBwiki is a great tool.
I used this quite a bit while in school for collaborating on research papers with other members of my project group. Many of us were in very distant cities and some in other states. Sending a Word document from person to person can be dangerous and someone may edit the wrong version of the paper resulting in hours of work fixing the mistake. Using a Wiki, the paper can be updated in real-time, there is usually only one version (as long as the group agrees on this) and the final paper can easily be copied to a Word document when it's time to submit.
Any time collaboration at a distance is required, this can be an invaluable tool.
The best part; you can use PBwiki for free!!!
