I have created a special page for MediaWiki that allows you to watch 
activity on your wiki in real-time using AJAX.  You can preview it at 
http://wiki.case.edu/Special:AJAXWatcher

It is still a work in progress, but an extension like this goes a long 
way towards making MediaWiki a better product for real-time 
collaboration.  I haven't excessively tested it across browsers, but it 
works in Firefox 1.5 under Linux.

The source code can be obtained at 
http://opensource.case.edu/projects/MediaWikiHacks/

As always, I am open to any suggestions or observations you may have.
