Wikiseek was a search engine that indexed English Wikipedia pages and pages that were linked to from Wikipedia articles. The search engine was funded by a Palo Alto based Internet startup SearchMe and was officially launched on January 17, 2007. Most of the funding came from Sequoia Capital. It used Google ads on its search returns to generate profit. As of 2008 it is no longer active. TechCrunch commented that the search engine may cause confusion with the Wikia search engine that had been announced the month previous to Wikiseek's launch.

  • Wikiseek era un motor de búsqueda de información que indexaba solamente páginas de Wikipedia, más páginas que enlazan a Wikipedia por medio de un hipertexto. Ha sido creado por Searchme, Inc. Al contrario de lo que afirman muchos medios, no tiene un vínculo directo con Wikimedia o con la Organización privada Wikia, y no está relacionado con la aún no realizada aplicación de búsqueda, anunciada por Wikia, Wikiasari. Para enero del 2007 Wikiseek solo busca en Wikipedia en Inglés. (es)
  • Wikiseek était un moteur de recherche qui n’indexait que les pages Wikipédia et les pages dont les liens figurent sur Wikipédia. Il a été développé par la startup américaine Searchme. Lancé en 2007, le site s'arrêta fin 2008. Ce logiciel a reçu le support de la Wikimedia Foundation puis fut hébergé par la société Wikia mais n'a pas de rapport avec le projet de moteur de recherche Wikiasari plus tard renommé Wikia Search.

  • Wikiseek was a search engine that indexed English Wikipedia pages and pages that were linked to from Wikipedia articles. The search engine was funded by a Palo Alto based Internet startup SearchMe and was officially launched on January 17, 2007. Most of the funding came from Sequoia Capital. It used Google ads on its search returns to generate profit. As of 2008 it is no longer active. Wikiseek was granted permission by the Wikimedia Foundation to index the Wikipedia website. Wikiseek has made financial contributions to the Wikimedia Foundation, and the group-edited blog, TechCrunch reported that it was donating the "majority" of advertising revenue. Wikipedia pages were re-indexed whenever Wikipedia had a database clean-up; external links were re-indexed weekly. Search results included tag clouds of Wikipedia categories that contained the search term. The first three results of any search would always be Wikipedia articles, and the remainder were a mix of Wikipedia content and websites linked to from Wikipedia. The service used user feedback to reduce the likelihood of spam. TechCrunch commented that the search engine may cause confusion with the Wikia search engine that had been announced the month previous to Wikiseek's launch. (en)
