One of the aphorisms that I think applies to Jimmy Wales's WikiaSearch is the old one about how everything looks like a nail to a guy with a hammer. I wonder if the wiki is the hammer and Wales sees everything, including search engines, as something to work on with a wiki. Now I'm not going to sell him short -- I say we give his social search approach a chance to work and see if a socially engaged search will provide the answers to our questions. I have some skepticism about wikis being the solution, but I say we give it a chance. Most of our experience at KeyContent.org has been that too few people do the actual content development given the chance with a wiki, and that Wikipedia has its own allure that a search engine will not offer. My own bias is that deli.cio.us and other social search sites are more the way to go, but with the Web, all ideas are allowed to be tested.
