Wikio
I am currently doing my end of education internship within Wikio. Here is the explanation that you can find on the website:
What is Wikio?
Wikio is an information portal with a news search engine that searches press sites and blogs.
With Wikio you can very easily create pages to follow the breaking news that interests you. Our info is continuously updated!
Wikio is a participative service: you can publish an article directly on the site or comment on an existing item.
You can also vote for an article or a group that captures your interest in order to increase its visibility on the site.
Each page offers an RSS feed that allows you to subscribe to receive the information that appears there in the reader of your choice.
I enjoy a lot to be a part of it, not only because Wikio is a new website that will benefit to the whole web, but because it is the reunion of some of the best Internet inventors of the past few years. I enjoy a lot being a part of such an adventure because I can feel the passion of blogs and of the web in general through the team.
Wikio is a news web search engine created by Pierre Chappaz who previously founded Kelkoo. What is revolutionary with Wikio is that it’s searching through well known news websites and in the blogosphere. I think this is the real added value of Wikio even if the website is full of good surprises. The shopping part, for example, is very well done, and I also like a lot the live tab where you can see each new articles coming in. Since I am working at Wikio, I discovered so many interesting blogs and learned so much about this sphere that I am now convince and so enthusiastic about the great future of this mean of communication.
You will find Wikio in English on Wikio.com and on Wikio.uk, in French on Wikio.fr, in Spanish on Wikio.es, in Italian on Wikio.it and in German on Wikio.de.
