On June 1st, Mottle.net will launch the first search engine to combine the features of Facebook and Wikipedia, enabling users to search for people as well as wiki their profiles.

Mottle.net works like a traditional networking site, allowing users to create their own profiles with pertinent social and career data. However, unique to Mottle, users can then wiki edit the profiles of other users they know, providing community feedback and verification of all data. Users can also create profiles about others, with important data verification and disputation features available for user protection.

“Search engines provide data that often has been collected from static sources on a user and may be inaccurate or out of context. Social networking pages on the other hand are set up and controlled by a user and have no peer review. Mottle enables personalized data presentation with peer review, similar to Wikipedia,” commented Nathan Hallford, co-founder of the site.

Registration to the site is free guys!
