Looking for a quote to spice up a presentation or speech? Not content to trawl through all those passé Web 1.0 quote sites? Then check out Quotiki.
As the name suggests, it is a wiki for quotes — well, sort of a wiki. That’s right, rather than pay someone to laboriously enter all those quotes into a database, they have decided to harness the power of collective intelligence. So, once you sign up, you can add quotes, tag them and add them to your favoutites.
You can also vote for quotes, which introduces the digg factor, an important element in any social media start-up’s business plan. And, to round out their Web 2.0™ credibility index, they also have a blog and a podcast.
I don’t want to sound too cynical, but do you think that this is really going to take off? To me, it seems a bit too much like a cash-in. Having said that, I have signed up anyway…
