Wikipedia set to take on Google

[dpg]

Jimmy Sales, the founder of online encyclopaedia Wikipedia, is planning a search engine called Wikiasari to compete with search giant Google. It will use a similar theme to Wikipedia by relying on volunteers to fine tune search results so they suit everyone better. Users will have the ability to re-rank search results and change the order in which they appear in. By collecting how the majority of users change results, Wikiasari will then decide the order in which results are shown to everyone else. Google controlled 49.5% of searches in December this year, so the competition from them will be fierce, but Wikipedia was a huge success.

It will take some time to take on Google though, the success of Google is actually the way they perform the search (Algorithm).. when we enter a keyword they wont just simply list down the results according to the keyword, rather they would scan all the results and will determine what site most surfers go into according to that keyword!! And list the results... I guess that's why we can find the site we wanted within the 1st results page almost every time!!!

Wikipedia gonna need to match Google's accuracy, I think its not impossible but will take sometime!!!

Lets wait and see!!!
