Well I read about this today on the newspaper (somehow it was open on the Web
Category otherwise I wouldn't have read it ) and I noticed the title right away: "Wikipedia throwing a Search
Engine" -it was in Spanish but it said something like that-
anyhow...
The article said that the creator of Wikipedia -Jimmy Wales-
criticizes Google's search engine a lot, and decide to make his own
"style" search engine
called: "Wikiasari"
"Wiki" as Wales has told just about every interviewer for the past 5
years, means "quick" in Hawaiian
"Asari" meanwhile, means "rummaging search" in
Japanese.
---info written above thanks to the Newspaper
and the link I gave--
Best of luck to the founder of Wikipedia. It will be interesting to see if Jimmy
Wales can create search engine that will surpass Google. I hope he does succeed
though. Google is getting to be MS of search engine; omnipotent with no close
rival to keep it in its place.
What exactly does this search engine plan to offer over its competitors. Trying
to enter the market without some definitive drawcard is pretty foolish.

Mainly the goal of Jimmy Wales is to become a better and famous search engine
than Google
He did said on the article I read on the Newspaper, that the searches are going
to be more "human like"
and with less "spammers" since he says Google runs like that.
hmmm... good... Kabura is right... since Wikipedia is such a good encyclopedia,
then probably (and hopefully) it will be a good search engine too!
also... since wikipedia already has a reputation then I think it has a chance
against google... yeah... wikipedia doesn't have to earn a its reputation and
this gives them a great advantage unlike other kinds of search engines...
Quote by TSPhoenixSo basically they
want to go head-to-head with Google, just be even less evil. Talk about picking
challenges.
Indeed, its seems quite an interesting challenge they picked. I'm wondering how
they are planning on making it better than Google since it I can't think of
anything seriously wrong with it to decide and make a new search engine.
that was good actually
u can't say it's bad or good since the user of internet is increasing faster
these days but, yeah...i still like Google btw. I could try Wiki for alternative
though
