From first look this is going to be huge. If there is a Google killer out there it is Wikia. Why? Transparency, community expertise, founders experience, buzz, funding. Wikia has it all.
Where does it put ASSISTA? ASSISTA will create its own path, carve its own niche.
Wishing the very best to Jimmy Wales and Co.

Apparently someone missed the memo about hyphenated domains sucking generally at about… 2 or more hyphens.
Search does seem quite poor at the moment but it should pick up over time. Hope they do well and provide a quality search engine.
I’m with you Mark..
I performed a few searches, and the results were way off the mark..
very early to tell though..
TechCrunch hammered it in a recent review:
