Mission

Webzzle's mission is to explore and organize the world's knowledge to make it useful for humanity to produce new knowledge to solve the world's problems.


Why did we develop Webzzle ?

From 1650 till 1800, "The Enlightenment"  was a movement developed by French, German, English, Spannish, Italian and Dutch thinkers. It spread through Europe as well as  the United States. All together, people build the realm of knowledge which reaches its pinacle thanks to initiatives like:
  • "The Encyclopedia", or a systematic dictionary of the sciences, arts, and crafts of Diderot & D'Alembert which was a general encyclopedia published in France between 1751 and 1772
  • The Bibliothèque Bleue, a collection of cheaply produced books published in Troyes, France. These commercial books were intended for a largely rural and semi-literate audience. These books included almanacs, retellings of medieval romances and condensed versions of popular novels, among other things.
The
"Enlightenment" principle motivated the creation of the American Declaration of Independence, the United States Bill of Rights, the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen.

Today, Internet enables the "Age of Knowledge". Human beings agree to build free knowledge Web sites like Wikipedia. Webzzle is an initiative to help humanity to explore this knowledge world and do as many good things as what has been produced during the "Age of Enlightenment".

Moreover...
  • We think we can bring to the world something that is useful to all for the daily life
We like the Web in general and we want to build the knowledge Web, a knowledge network. We would like Webzzle to become gradually a "grey matter" gold mine, our collective brain.
  • We explore, not only search
This is not with an association of two, three or four terms that a search engine can find exactly the knowledge 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 serve 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 find useful knowledge using keyword search engines.
  • We look forward better quality results and need both human knowledge and another technology that the keywords to find them
We use everyday Google, Wikipedia, or others like many of us for our quest for knowledge. However most of the time, 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.
  • We want to produce the knowledge Web and participate to build the semantic Web
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 a part of it, from knowledge brought by contributors and from links between Web resources built by contributors.
  • We want to change the rules for more justice
Webzzle : General Internet Company (GI)

GI is a Web science & technology company. Webzzle is the Knowledge Exploration and Organization business.
Webzzle will generate incomes while making it possible for the advertisers to engage with potential customers through knowledge conversations about their products and services. The knowledge ads are interesting for the advertisers which monetize them, and for the users who consult them and can interact with. We do not lie to the user who is a friend of Webzzle. We specify clearly when a message is commercial (in usual specific zone). Moreover, we do not sell the sites in the list of results and we do not allow the advertisers to pay to improve the rank of their knowledge ads.


Our vision of the future

Internet & knowledge are to the XXI century what have electricity and oil been to the XX century. We wish to help people build a better world all together with Internet and knowledge.

Meaning of Webzzle & Pronounciation

Webzzle is a new word. We chose it because we see the Web as a huge puzzle, made of knowledge pieces, in which every one contributes.
You know how to pronounce puzzle. Replace "pu" by "Web" and you will say Webzzle like us.
