I want to do a wrap up of some of the acolades that have been given to WikiRage from the blogging community, I'll focus on the US news. I've already documented hitting the top of Digg and Del.icio.us. StumbleUpon has sent a tremendous amount of traffic. Some of the things I read that having a feature in would stroke the ego of any Internet Technologist are Mashable, ReadWriteWeb, and Webware. You can't call it a feature, but if Daring Fireball links to you it is pretty damn cool. SearchEngineLand gave wikirage a level of credibility that branched out from the purely tech community.
More recently it looks like maybe wikirage is actually permeating pop culture with placement on Lifehacker and placements in Video programs Rocketboom and JetSetShow. Oh yea, I'd hate to forget Mashup of the Day at Mashup Awards. I'm sure I'm forgetting some pretty good placements -- all in all it's been a lot of fun.

Although wikirage could use an iteration to improve the visual presentation of the data, I think the tool you created adds a lot to discovery both of Wikipedia content and to the community. I'm looking forward to seeing this project evolve.

I can't hear "the story so far" without thinking it's a Marillion line. A college buddy turned me on to them. Very underappreciated.
