Your Thoughts on Wiki Resource

I wanted to drop in to tell you about an interesting resource I came across that allows visitors to edit website pages on all the websites on the Internet.

AboutUs.org is an editable Wiki with information about all the websites on the web and their owners through their about us pages and whois details. Details on a webpage can be edited by simply clicking the edit button. No HTML or FTP experience needed.

The site runs in conjunction with DomainTools.com, formerly whois.sc, which is a domain search tool that tells you all kinds of information about a domain name, such as who it is registered to, when they registered it, and more. They also offer many other tools such as an IP lookup and a listing of domain names for sale and auction.

Some may ask why you would want just anyone editing your website’s content. If it’s valuable information that contributes to your site, that’s less content you have to worry about updating yourself. When you add the Wiki tags to your site, it also creates incoming links, which is a plus for search engine placement along with the fresh content.

Check it out and let me know what you think as a visitor wishing to edit a site and others using it to edit your site.

I’m not sure how popular or valuable it may be so if you have used it in the past or just absolutely refuse to use it, I’d love to hear your thoughts as well.
