    Wikilive.in created by Deepanshu Mehndiratta, 2nd year student of BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Campus, Goa.

    The idea of a Wikipedia Live Search struck him. Using Wikipedia‟s APIs, Ajax, jQuery libraries and Javascript he set out on this project and 5 hours later, http://www.wikilive.in was up and running. The website interface is simple and minimalistic. You can type in a search query and it offers all relevant Wikipedia search results along with a preview of Wikipedia article itself in realtime. For instance, if you type in „IPad‟, you would get related search results such as „IPad‟, „IPad2”,”IPadOS” „IPadapp′ „IPadtheft‟ etc., at the top, followed by the whole IPad Wikipedia article in an Ajax-based Window. You can then click on any of these topics on the top bar to switch to the corresponding Wikipedia article in the same window. 

    Inspirational movies or success stories and biographies of great people or a passion to stand out from the rest of the crowd --something needs to stir you if you really wish to create something new. “YouTube instant” created by FerossAboukhadijeh, a Stanford Student about a year ago inspired DeepanshuMehndiratta,a second year engineering student at BITS-Pilani KK Birla Goa Campus to create a similar real-time live search service for Wikipedia, a popular site used by millions of people around the world. 

    Deepanshu says that it was during some research he was doing for one of his course related projects that he had to go through a lot of Wikipedia articles and found it very cumbersome to browse the articles through Google or the default Wikipedia search page. He thought it‟d be quite easy to search for an article if you could get a preview of the page you are about to visit by just typing into the search box. And thus the idea of a Wikipedia Live Search struck him. It is believed that Deepanshu‟s this creation may motivate many others to take that first step into creating something really awesome. Visit http://www.wikilive.in and enjoy the services offered by this comprehensive, quick search!
