wiki has market, other sits fuck what was it just read it citizendium or something close is a typing nightmare. Let alone try to say it.

Furious_Female · 10-17-2006, 03:11 AM

I predict Google buying wiki in the near future

Theo · 10-17-2006, 03:52 AM

easily they'll buy it or sponsor it somehow

GrouchyAdmin · 10-17-2006, 03:53 AM

I'll be here all night folks!

Try the fish!

Wiki will always be marketable.. however he's views are good but it sounds more like wiki2.0 then anything lol

IncaD · 10-17-2006, 05:02 AM

sounds like the new version is similar to about.com's process.

StarkReality · 10-17-2006, 05:11 AM

It's already like DMOZ today, there are groups of "contributors" that take care that their shit sites stay listed and if you add a really useful good new link it's removed in a short time....with editors, it will become even worse, yep, you are right

fris · 10-17-2006, 05:25 AM

goole will buy wiki and about.com next

getting listed on wiki is awesome especially when its pr6 and pr7 pages

Damian_Maxcash · 10-17-2006, 05:37 AM

Didnt work when DMOZ did it and it wont work now.

1000s of keyboard warriors on a power trip is a recipe for disaster - lol - just saw the irony of saying that on here.

That's not a farfetched idea given the fact that Google LOVES wikipedia reference pages so much

That's my thoughts exactly re "editors" (whatever name a particular site gives them).

DMOZ just degenerated into little fiefdoms...
