WE HAVE MORE QUIZZES THAN THE REST OF THE INTERNET COMBINED!
Wednesday, 8 September 2010
The Full Wiki has released its most interactive feature: quizzes on 44,000 topics. We use Wikipedia as our source to what we believe is the largest quiz source in human history.
SEE WHAT'S HOT ON WIKIPEDIA IN OVER 13,000 CATEGORIES!
Thursday, 22 July 2010
All you stat lovers out there, check out our new site, The Full Wiki. It allows you to monitor global trends by seeing what's hot on Wikipedia. We've combined Wikipedia traffic data with their categories, to create 13,000 what's hot lists. Updated daily.
Some interesting examples from today's trending topics:
Our new site, The Full Wiki has brought together Google Maps and Wikipedia. Now you can view any article on Wikipedia with all the locations mentioned on a Google Map.
The map and the article are linked throughout. Click on a map marker and it jumps to that part of the article. Click on an article marker and it will show you that location on the map.
See for example our tourism fact map. If we click on Bangkok (Q), for example, we can see the relevant part of the article and learn that it's the third most visited city in the world. Or zooming into Europe and clicking on Nice, Wikipedia tells us it was one of the first and best established resorts in the French Riveria.
From the makers of NationMaster comes a new project aimed at harnessing the wealth of content of wikis.
It's called the The Full Wiki. Its goal is to become a platform for an enriched user experience for wikis using open licenses.
We have seen many fantastic projects come and go under the weight of traffic spikes, large datasets and the need to stay fresh. We want to provide serious hosting resources to make these projects feasible.
If you have a wiki oriented project you'd like us to host or provide other help, check out The Full Wiki.
FEATURE UPDATE
Tuesday, 14 April 2009
We've been working away for the past month and are pleased to announce a raft of new little features:
Refined moderation of user comments. Your valued contributions will appear on the site quicker.
Top rankings pages now show the top 5 most popular stats for each variable, rather than the top 1.
We've put a search box at the bottom of each page, so it's convenient to find new things out of our vast collection.
