What in hell’s carnation is a SWICKI?

If you’ve been living under a rock for the last day or so you may have missed our new “Charlottesville Social Search” widget on the right sidebar.

What is this!?

Don’t freak out. Welcome to the internet. Swickis learn from your search results and rankings to help you find what find what you want. If we all start collaborating and using the swicki to search for Charlottesville things, we can build a more intelligent, local search engine. It’s free and if you don’t like ours, you can build your own.


Share the SWICKI!

So, you can put the swicki on your homepage, blog or whatever. Go to the share section and find out what you can do. Test it out and if it sucks, you don’t have to use it. Go to the main page and look at the right sidebar. You can email it, add it to your search options in your browser and even comment on search topics.

Happy swicking.

    Thor, I helped you out. While carnations are, you know, nice cheap fillers for flower bouquets, tarnations are much, much worse. ;)

    parlie, if I could have like, 10,000 of your babies, I totally would. Or at least I used to think that until you tempted me with that horrible link and now I hate you because that is a click of my life that will never get back. The babies are off.

    Oh…Caroline loves somebody? Big surprise there. Get in line, Parlie. No wonder Silmo is sick (or for the topic, Swick).

    I would have Parlie’s babies but he’d go and spend the child support money on Bud Light.

    parlie said:

    everybody relax, nobody’s having any goddamned babies. i had a vasectomy for people like you.

    child support indeed.

    Vasectomy? Or castration?

    Don’t do it Lu Sid! He’ll ditch you at the hospital to go play beer pong.

    If what Gobbler said was true I fear they would have your height challenge. Of course we could stack them one on top of the other.

    Mmmm…beer pong. I would be pissed, but only because I wouldn’t be bale to go.

    Perhaps. However disappointing to some people, I would like to express my apologies to those who may have been offended, in particular, Silmo and Caroline. My filter seems to have been temporarily disabled. You guys can have your game back now.
