I have been wondering for awhile when someone was going to build a search engine that searches wikis. Well, now there is one - Qwika.
The search engine covers all sizable wikis in all languages and even translates them. Most of the results I get so far are from various flavors of Wikipedia. Still, it's great that someone is thinking about this need. I figured this was an area that Google or Yahoo would dominate first, but they've left it alone so far.
