Wikia Search, Jimmy Wales’ project that was supposed to put the social into search, is getting closed down today, CNET reports.
The project, while interesting as an idea, was pretty much doomed from the beginning. My initial review was negative; Wikia Search was simply very far from a finished product. I’ve revisited the service after a couple of months, and though certain improvements were made, it was still just a promise of something that might or might not happen in the future. In the meantime, Jason Calacanis’ Mahalo was doing pretty much the same thing with a lot more success.

Wikia Search homepage displays "So long and thanks for all the fish!" right now. |
"thanks for all the fish!"!!! ???? what that it means ????????? |
It's a quote from Douglas Adams' "trilogy" The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy... that's what the dolphins said before escaping the planet, so it means good-bye, we're out of here. |
thnx for the definition :)
BTW do u believe that wikia could be (if not Google) can do better search then yahoo or M$N in future if its farther develop . |
