    Question would be - What made Techcrunch to take such a big risk ?

    I have to say that that was daring ! It could have killed any small blog !

    I didnt get it, why not a common indexing.I mean googles indexing and now wikpedia …..dont we need some standard? At the end it iwll be like 3 search engine providing ranks to each site whom would u go for.Obviously which dominates but that isnt right.

    Like they all agreed on the common sitemap I am thinking if they can have a common thing for page ranking and indexing.Difficult though but an idea for sure..

    And wikpedia results 3 top….i dont like that

    Well, this will be okay to replace wikipedia’s current search, but it won’t affect google. Say I’m searching for information on the grand canyon, I’ll get relevant details, but If I’m looking for a technical question on linux, this will not yield the proper results. Google must partner with wikipedia and offer one result at the top if a corresponding wikipedia article is available.

    Anirudh: I disagree with you on this regard. The new Search Engine will comeout of Wikia Labs, it has nothing to do with Wikipedia. Its a standalone Search Engine.

    I was talking about this:

    The first three results will be Wikipedia content and remain results will be determined by Wikipedia’s outbound links. So if a site has more links from Wikipedia then the site will climb up in the SERP page.

    and you mean “remaining links” which mean the other search results. This block of text is rather unclear.
