The focus of the interactive podcast with Jimbo would be Wikipedia, and his for-profit ‘Wikia’ as well as their upcoming human powered, transparent search engine. Jimmy Wales being named as one of the Top 25 Web Celebrities for 2007 is extremely social and soft spoken guy. It’s fun to talk to him in real person.

    Jimmy is exactly that: very real, approachable, and social. It is going to be quite interesting to follow both Wikia and Wikia Search in the coming months/years.

    Based on the success of Wikipedia, and the escalation/ growth of Wikia thus far – it has a real chance of disrupting (even on a small scale) the world of search.

    Thanks for the mention, and hope you can join in on the conversation!
