In early January, Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales introduced the alpha version of Search Wikia - freeware search engine. Developed under the project code and the data collected will be offered for free access (see. ' Founder of Wikipedia plans to beat Google').
...
Jeremy Miller, the founder and architect of the project Jabber Search WIkia, added: ...
Free search engine will use the information obtained from users, and these ratings. Search Wikia handles basic search requests that anyone can discuss and determine the ranking for search results. It can also be used to create a personal profile on a social network, adding friends, sharing photos, and configuration management to ensure confidentiality. In addition, anyone can write and edit mini articles. According to information published on this site, the project will continue to flourish only if users are to monitor the reliability of results.
The site emphasizes the Search Wikia Alpha status of the mechanism.
And this status is confirmed by the caustic comments of some critics, including The Wall Schroeder, author of the popular technology blog Mashable, who writes: ' Every time I try a new search engine, I am reminded of how good work Google'.
A reputable, Michael Errington titled his review in TechCrunch as: 'Search Wikia - a complete disappointment '. He stopped in detail on the shortcomings of the new search engine, noting that ... Critics point out first of all search engine results are scarce and the lack of individual approach to the inquiry.
' In general, Search Wikia is very similar crafts that two people have done over the last month in a basement somewhere on the knee ... In response to feedback Erringtona Wales reiterated that as long as is offered only an alpha version of a search engine, recalling that, like Wikipedia, Project Search Wikia is intended that work on it will be implemented jointly by enthusiasts.
... He also remembered that on the day when there was Wikipedia, it was nearly empty website with some funny typos. And in response to unflattering comparisons with Google, he wrote: ' In Google did not deal with a project to create a search engine that takes into account the information that comes from the users. They released a search engine algorithm that is based on a very reasonable new ideas. They had no need to wait for people to come and begin to create it '.
Time will tell if people would work together to create a Search Wikia, or choose to continue using Google and other search engines familiar.
