A Look At SourceLabs’ SWiK

Joe ‘Zonker’ Brockmeier writes “SourceLabs has launched an interesting project called SWiK that combines the best of a Wiki, database, social bookmarks and search engine for open source projects. The front page interface is deceptively sparse, a simple search box with a bit of descriptive text and the SWiK logo, links for random projects and recent edits.

However, SWiK is a lot more than a mere search engine or directory. SWiK is part-Wiki, which means that users can add entries for projects or update existing entries with new information, tips, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), comments or whatnot.”
