Quoting Brady Forrest on O'Reilly Radar:
At various times I have had to explain what a wiki is to people and I rarely do a good job. In the future I may just show them Lee & Sachi LeFever's video Wikis in Plain English. It does a really good job of explaining why and how someone would want to us a wiki. They doing a good job of keeping the vocabulary on the easily-understood side of tech. If you ever need to explain RSS they have a video for that too.
A new Wikipedia search engine, Wikiseek, is avialable:
"WikiSeek is a search engine that has indexed only Wikipedia sites, plus sites that are linked to from Wikipedia. It serves two purposes. First, it is a much better Wikipedia search engine than the one on Wikipedia (and has been built with Wikipedia’s assistance and permission). Second, the fact that it also indexes sites that are linked to from Wikipedia means that, presumably, it will return only very high quality results and very little spam. It won’t show every relevant result to a query, but it will certainly give a good overview of a subject without all the mess."
