Well, it’s done – at least a working prototype is done.
The idea was to browse Wikipedia using Grazr.
This can be done by representing the main categories of Wikipages in an OPML file. Using the Grazr GUI, a user can drill down through any subcategories, similarly represented. Expanding a category provides an OPML file for each subcategory and an RSS file for the directly-contained wikipages. A PHP script builds the OPML and RSS files from a cache of Wikipedia.
I also encapsulated it as a Facebook application. You can try the Facebook prototype or the prototype without Facebook, but it is only a prototype so I am not yet publishing it as a fully fledged application. If you notice any bugs, please leave a comment.
Wow, that’s really cool. And I’m not just saying that because I’m an advisor to Grazr. Thanks!
