What’s up today? WikiDo looks for it for you!

W

WikiDo has been developed by Niccolò and Giuseppe Becchi, two computer engineers and brothers that came up with this idea almost three year ago.
The idea is to help people find out about happenings going to take place within the following days in a given location that has to be selected by the visitor. Results can be filtered according to user?s interests, per tags and categories, such as music, sports, arts and museum events.
(e.g. Let’s see WHAT’S GOING ON TODAY in Austin, TX )

WikiDo collects information automatically from millions of websites and sends the users back to the original sites for the event details. Anyone can further add on or modify the contents and so the search engine is really an hybrid in which the results are by the contribution of all the users and our algorithm.

Quite interestingly the platform that Becchi Bros managed to set up is scalable. The project is meant to cover Australia, UK, South Africa within the next months, while at the same time the two developers are trying to improve quality and quantity of the data handled by refining the algorithm. In the long run they plan to offer the same service to anybody in the whole world enabling visitors to learn about what is going on in her/his home town with just one click.

The website was successfully launched for the first time last October 2012, highly welcome from the American surfers. For further developments and updates stay tuned and visit WikiDo at www.wikido.com  – As Niccolò Becchi pointed out ?today, if you want to be in, don’t miss WikiDo out?.
