Now may be noticing the links with a new tool "Swicki" on community web
sites like wikis, blogs, rss, etc.  What it is, what for, how can we
utilize, ... let's keep watch and know more for our use. It seems to be
useful tool.

What's a Swicki?
A swicki is new way of searching content that harnesses the power of
community. This swicki keeps track of what you and other Applications
users are searching for. The most popular search terms are shown above, in
the "cloud" of links. The more popular a term, the larger it is displayed.
Clicking on a link will display the search results for that term.

Why a Swicki?
The swicki looks at content that is relevant to you, your search terms and
most importantly, relevant to that community. You won't get ads, you won't
get horoscopes and you won't get unrelated content. What you will get is
relevant research and up to date results that relate to you.
