Someone pointed out this site which is a beta travel information site. It's got lots of informational tidbits that were worth a look. One thing that was rather… odd… was the fact that there were all these [edit] links all over. Ever a curious monkey, i clicked on one.
i hope they've got editors…
lots of editors…
Hmm… Apparently they're broken. i'm getting sketchy results from it. Hopefully they're fixing it and relauching, because i'll agree that this is a great idea, provided that they resolve the monkey+keyboard problem.
It's back.
Huh?
What this means is that someone could go and write literally anything about a given location. I could describe some section of Boise as being the best place in the world to see Elvis and drink molten lead, or that South Central Sheboygan is full of nazi loving child rapists and load up a picture of some porn site.
Do you actually believe that the Westgate section of San Jose actually has a motto of "Gateway to whatever happens to be west of here"?
Do you actually believe that there is a Westgate section of San Jose?
Nice find, TA – a wiki without controls, whee, let loose the monkeys!
(wiki controls are "recent changes" and "history" pages with IPs and possibly nicks, and a large and active community.)
Seems to be no different than the wikipedia.
Cool, but i didn't see any monkey or excessive links. I like the way they let you add a "sub location". Man, talk about viral. If that takes off, they will have minimal workload and maximum content.
Great idea for any site that needs lots of content :-)
