Does WikiTree cost any money to use?
No, WikiTree is a free genealogy platform that allows users to create and share family trees.

WikiTree can help people in a variety of ways, depending on their personal goals. WikiTree can be used as a research tool for discovering your family history. There are over a million public profiles of ancestors. WikiTree can be used to organize your family history.

How do you create an account on WikiTree?
Click the "register" link in the upper-right corner of any WikiTree page. That will take you to the Account Creation form. Account Creation requires a first name, last name, e-mail address, and password. You can anonymize your name by using initials. The e-mail address is used for your future logins, Trusted List requests, private messages from other WikiTreers, and weekly updates about changes in the profiles you're Watching.
Blocking people from seeing your Farmville updates?
I don't you can block people from seeing your updates. If you disallow Farmville to receive notification updates in your application setting, you won't receive any notifications at all. Hence, it won't stop sending notifications or updates of yours to your friends unless they also disallow Farmville to receive notification updates. I think what you should just do is don't post any updates such as when leveling up or mastering a plant or anything that need to post in your wall.
Where was WikiTree created?

Can someone get addicted to WikiTree?

Is WikiTree better than WikiAnswers?
Presumably someone asked this because WikiTree.com has the same creator as WikiAnswers, Chris Whitten. Of course, this is a subjective question which can't easily be answered in a forum like this. Besides, WikiTree is completely different from WikiAnswers. WikiAnswers is for asking and answering questions on any topic. WikiTree is for growing your family tree.
