Wikiasari as Wikipedia Founder’s Google Killer Search Engine

by SEO Dance

wikipediaJimmy Wales, the founder of the widely-used free online encyclopedia and one of the most successful Web 2.0 creations Wikipedia will be collaborating with Amazon to launch the search engine that promises to change everything - Wikiasari. It currently redirects to Wikia Search.

Wikiasari, according to Mr. Wales, will challenge the two major search engines Yahoo! and Google since it will rely on human intelligence like the user-generated Wikipedia does and will be doing what algorithms fail to do.

Sounds like an excellent search engine. But definitely a lot of work to do.
