Wikia, the new search thiingie

A rather biased article from the Register, who hates Jim Wales. I have a more neutral view, and I have even written a 'mini-article' on 'earthquake' for the project. I loved the Wikipedia when it started, since it merged my wild creative soul, with actual editors who fixed things. Then it became a giant bloody battlefield between the protectors and the barbarians (vandals).

Of course, this project will go the same way. And Google is trying the same thing with their bizarre 'Knol' project. The Internet survives by leaving the devastation behind, and moving on to the 'next thing'.
