After transforming the web-encyclopedia to a new level, Wikipedia now is ready to take on Google and Yahoo! by launching its own Search Engine called Search Wikia. Wikipedia will be using Nutch and Lucene and other technologies for this new type of search engine. I hope Wikia will be something totally new that will allow us to find the right information efficiently.

Usually Google displays Wikipedia in the search results quite high, I am not sure if it will be the same after the Wikia is launched. After all they will be competitors after this.
