Webzzle Presentation

We like the Web in general and we think that this one will become part of our everyday life, including the digital world. We would like Webzzle to become gradually a "grey matter" gold mine, our collective brain as well as a system which combines the best Web services in order to help us manage our digital everyday life.

This is not with an association of two, three or four terms that a search engine can find exactly what you look for. In the same way, a salesman cannot show you in his shop what you want if you just say these two, three or four terms to him. It is only when the engine is made a representation of what you search that it can present you similar things. To be made this representation either there are several exchanges between you and the engine (like a discussion with the salesman), or you show him an existing thing while asking him what is approaching (and you explore). Moreover, there are so many interesting things on the Web that we think we will spend more time exploring than searching in the future. Tomorrow, search engine will be part of the explorer category and we'll wonder how we could trust keyword search engines.

We use everyday Google, Wikpedia, or others like many of us for our search. However most of the time, for little bit more complex searches, other technologies show us their limit. Then, Webzzle is useful for us. Moreover, we combined Google Search to get, if you wish it, the results of this engine while avoiding entering lots of keywords.

Today, the Web needs to be more structured to enable users to better use it. Lots of good and clever people have great ideas to build the semantic Web, the meaning based Web. With Webzzle, we offer a new way of building it, from knowledge brought by Wikipedia contributors and from links between Web resources built by Webzzle contributors.

Webzzle does not wish to be the only one to benefit from the produced wealth. Not only Webzzle is free for the users but Webzzle wants to share a part of its income, especially with services like Wikipedia and open source projects like Mozilla. Our values, our quest for meaning in this world, make that we wish a part of the money generated by Webzzle be transferred to users who can choose between receiving the money directly in the form of grants to finance their project or give it to philantropic organizations. Indeed, we will pay for the work of people who bring their knowledge. It is normal to encourage everyone to share what he knows, to pay for the work of the users who make Webzzle a high quality Web information system. It is also normal to share the wealth with those who give a true service to society. In particular, the management team of Webzzle is sensitive to the philantropic world, for example through Wikipedia, Mozilla, Monde Sans Frontières which aims since 2001 at making it possible for the Nepalese children to reach education and l'Oasis which aims at developing a center of leisure for the 6 to 16 years old autistic and psychotics children of Essonne (France) not taken in charge by the specialized structures.
