Gseeker 已经报导了关于 Wikipedia 意欲打造自己的搜索引擎的消息，这是 Wikipedia 创始人 Jimmy Wales 联合 Amazon 开发，明年计划发布的 Wikiasari。Jimmy Wales 很明显是把目标瞄准了 Google：

"Google is very good at many types of search, but in many instances it produces nothing but spam and useless crap. Try searching for the term 'Tampa hotels', for example, and you will not get any useful results…Essentially, if you consider one of the basic tasks of a search engine, it is to make a decision: 'this page is good, this page sucks.' Computers are notoriously bad at making such judgments, so algorithmic search has to go about it in a roundabout way…But we have a really great method for doing that ourselves. We just look at the page. It usually only takes a second to figure out if the page is good, so the key here is building a community of trust that can do that."

呵呵，有意思，明年又有新的可以期待的事情了，还真不知道百科全书加上优秀的搜索引擎会诞生一个什么样的东西。

Update: 似乎又被 TC 忽悠了，Jimmy Wales 急吼吼的跑出来辟谣，呵呵，不管如何，等待正式的官方消息吧/
