"The founder of Wikipedia, the user-edited online encyclopedia, is developing a wiki-based search engine to compete with established commercial search engines from Google Inc. and Yahoo Inc.
Jimmy Wales announced plans to develop the search engine, to be named "Wikiasari," or "Wikia," for short, in a Dec. 23 online posting.
The Wikimedia Foundation Inc., of St. Petersburg, Florida, which manages the Web site Wikipedia.com, emphasizes that the search engine project is not associated with the foundation." - more from: Robert Mullins, IDG News Service, San Francisco Bureau
