Everywhere Girl found on Wikia search

Wiki wiki wiki wiki

THE WIKIPEDIANS might have erased the Everywhere Girl from their egregious Whackypedia thing, but Wikia Search, which opens for business today, has no problem finding the lass at all.

Wikia Search is the latest brainchild from Mr Jimmy “Wiki” Wales himself, and will take on Google, no doubt he hopes, complete with some advertising options.

The Wikia thing is at wikia.com. µ

What's wrong with IE7?

Call me a n00b, a fanboi or just plain daft, but what is wrong with using IE7?

Not that I do mind you, I use Firefox, but that's because IE6 is rubbish in comparison, and it's now just habit to use Firefox.

You can skin firefoxy to look like IE, but that's just as blasphemous!

Sluggish

The site is pretty sluggish. No doubt from the legions of hardcore, fanatical INQers desperately trying to push EG’s popularity and ranking way up.

I also had it hang on me once (the page was unresponsive). Used my back key to get to the previous page and all was well again.

Does not seem to be terribly well indexed - it didn't find one entry from my blog (sniff, sniff) despite other search engines having indexed it without me submitting it.

Re:What's wrong with IE7?

Oh, nothing much really.
Just every security hole of IE6, plus a few new ones for good measure.
