[…] Of course, there will always be the argument that without funds, there will be no R&D and eventually commercial companies cannot improve their products. This however has not surfaced; Oracle and MS SQL have instead been ruffled with competitions and economist will tell you competition leads to better standards.Wikipedia has shown how potent a single community can be - in fact, that they are intending to compete with Google with a similar concept - http://www.techcrunch.com/2006.....creenshot/ […]

Wikiasari is definitely intended as a commercial concern. Which is not a bad thing by any means, as long as it doesn’t create any issues regarding the fidelity of Wikipedia.

[…] WikiSeek will undoubtedly be confused with the much discussed Wikiasari search engine that was announced by Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales last month. In fact, in our original post on Wikiasari, we included a screenshot that we later learned was not a prototype of Wikiasari. We corrected that post, and asked “the Wikisearch Screenshot Isn’t Wikiasari, So What Is It?” It was actually an early WikiSeek prototype, then called WikiSearch. Question answered. […]

Wasted white space. Seems everyone lays out the page to please the first-timer’s eye at the expense of making the ads and results more usable. Look at all the wasted white space in the top 25% of the page and then there’s room for only 2 search results after all the ads. 50% of the second and third lines each is wasted in the right side sponsor ads because the text does not run all the way across the area allotted. Everything in green is a waste because no one, NO ONE, wants to see a www thing when a click anywhere will take you to a site. Nowhere can an advertiser put a pic or logo on the search screen at any price. Offer them a choice between Google and Google and they’ll pick Google every time.

[…] Is Wikiasari going to be the “killer” new search engine to trump over Google? I’m not sure, but what I am sure about is the dominant power that community driven sites have had over the past few years(MySpace, Craigslist, eBay,YouTube, WikiPedia, etc). Wikiasari is the vision of Jimmy Wales who pioneered and founded Wikipedia, a dynamic online community driven encyclopedia which I personally use almost everyday and trust more than the printed stuff. I’m a sucker for community driven websites and am optimistic about this buzz, but what I can say, is that there is a great deal of improvements needed for search engines. I’m just going to wait (rumored to launch in early 2007) and see what pops, but if your the early adopter craving to know, read on to these articles for more details(such as Amazons funding, etc); TechCrunch, TopTechNews, CNet.(also an influential read about this topic is TIME magazines Person of the year: You) This is good reminder that even if a specific market is controlled by a monster company, there is always room to dominate, much like google did back in the yahoo, netcrawler, netscape days.
