That *is* cool.  Nice search interface.  That brings an idea to mind:
if one wanted to quickly build a Mahalo type directory-in-a-search
engine, one could do the same thing, and present the external links
found in Wikipedia.  Perhaps use the article title in some way to
narrow search topics.  Hmm...
