AP vs. Wikipedia

I've become conditioned to saying that everything the AP does is stupid, so maybe I have to reserve judgment on this one: How The Associated Press will try to rival Wikipedia in search results. At least it's tactically an idea, rather than fantasy. Interesting: EveryZing, a company I've worked with that was recently purchased by NBC, seems to be involved.

FWIW, yesterday I learned something that I wasn't able to clear up before posting, which is that EveryZing hasn't been signed to do the full-fledged thing for AP. They just produced the proof-of-concept.
