Tech can be so dour and precise, just try reading a TechCrunch report, but really, it needn't be that way. To prove my point, I set up a Swicki (a cross between a search engine and a wiki) entitled Funny Tech Terms, my attempt to lighten the atmosphere in tech land with some light-hearted definitions.

All you need to see (or contribute), is follow the link from the sidebar, or if you are reading this from your Google reader, follow this link, and take a look at the definitions.

If you want to add your own gem, or comment, then be my guest, (by clicking Comment on this post at the bottom of each entry). Feel the power.

If you want to launch your own site-specific Swicki, go to the Eurekester home page and launch one.

So far, I have had more people visit the Swicki than read this site, so I guess I am doing something wrong here and plenty right with the Swicki!

There are thousands of Swickis, check them out and add some variety to your search experience.

(Today I notice the Swicki servers are sooooo slow. Cricket aficionados may appreciate my revised definition of Swicki, from Search plus Wiki to Server plus Sticky Wicket?
