Good work! Now this gives me a reason to hang out on the wiki sites longer instead of having to run over to popular SE’s to look something up.

[...] Wikipedia Search Engine WikiSeek Launches : WikiSeek is a search engine that has indexed only Wikipedia sites, plus sites that are linked to from Wikipedia. It serves two purposes. First, it is a much better Wikipedia search engine than the one on Wikipedia. Second, the fact that it also indexes sites that are linked to from Wikipedia means that, presumably, it will return only very high quality results and very little spam. In addition to the search engine, WikiSeek has two additional tools – a search plugin for FireFox, IE7 and Opera, and a really useful greasemonkey-like Firefox Extension that will change the way Wikipedia looks on that browser by adding a “WikiSearch” button to the search box [...]

need another way to search the Wikipedia with Google, but without trowing in the rather complex syntax (site:ect….) ? Try http://www.wiki-search.eu, it use Google Co-op.

It think Google list results faster. And still i think i will continue reading Wikipedia articles, and search the web by Google.

I can’t believe all the nitpicking that’s going on. It’s not multilingual? It just launched, duh!!! It’s not comprehensive? It’s supposed to be selective. And this
“I can’t believe this company got $5 million in VC funding from Sequoia. Most of the functionality can be found in Google by appending searches with “site:en.wikipedia.org”, the only thing missing is the pages linked to from Wikipedia.” Searching through the pages linked to from Wikipedia IS what’s new about this engine.

As per futef.com referenced above by Derek. I completely agree with you. As it stands futef could be to wikiseek what google is to msn.

My main disapointment is that it is not multilingual. With 5 million there should have been a way to make it accessible to everybody.

I think wikiseek’s corporate name is appropriate – “Searchme, Inc.” on many levels.

I tried wikiseek and didn’t think the results were comprehensive. I’m not likely to use it.
