As you browse the internet, there’s always that moment in time, everyday, when we want to know about particular stuffs. Searching in Google or Yahoo is probably the way we usually do it. But are there any other places we can search? Wikipedia, collaborated with SearchMe, now has its own search engine called WikiSeek, built based on its contents.

WikiSeek is the newest search engine (officially launched today) that indexes only Wikipedia sites, plus those sites which are being referenced within Wikipedia. In case you don’t know, Wikipedia is an online free-content encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Overall posts’ contents are being monitored by a lot of people / contributors, so therefore, the level of accuracy of the posts can be maintained. As any articles are editable in Wikipedia, WikiSeek hopes to have a better and very little spam chances. Developed by SearchMe, Inc., WikiSeek utilizes SearchMe’s category refinement technology, providing suggested search refinements based on user tagging and categorization within Wikipedia. Search results include a tag cloud on top of the page, which contains Wikipedia categories containing your search term. You can filter the results further by clicking the appropriate tag (if any). You can help spread WikiSeek to others by embedding the search engine to your sites. According to WikiSeek (available on the footer side):

Overall, WikiSeek provide a nicer way of searching terms by making the world’s biggest collaborative encyclopedia as its source. Unlike Yahoo or Google, WikiSeek is not the place to find key words in the internet, nor it’s a place to gain web popularity.

WikiSeek is a search engine where results are being created and edited by the people around the world.
