Wikia Sucks Because It Doesn't Know Me

January 7, 2008 Posted by Nate Westheimer

Wikia Search launched today. For an analysis on its chances, check here. I'm not very impressed, to be quite frank.

I ran two searches where this blog ranks well in Google and this is what I got:

1. "Nate Westheimer" 2. "Facebook business model" (see the screenshots below)

To be frank, because innonate.com didn't show up in these searches, I don't think Wikia's going very deep at all.

innonate.com is not a popular website by any means, but there are certainly enough links out there which would have it cross paths with a spider or two. It's also a top 350,000 website, according to Alexa, and I would hope that Wikia was spidering the top 500,000 websites out there.

Anyway, until I learn more about whatever secret sauce is behind this which I should be raving about, I'm not going to rave about it... or use it.
