A Wikipedia Search Trick
Do you ever search for something wanting Wikipedia but get frustrated that it isn't there? (At least if you're too lazy to scroll down.)
On the other hand, are you sick of typing site:wikipedia.org to do a search when you didn't have to?
There's a compromise. Just use the word "wiki" when you search. Google will generally interpret "wiki" as meaning "wikipedia", although if you really mean "wiki" rather than "wikipedia" Google will usually figure that out too.

Ah, so *that's* why it's so hard get Google to cough up any results on the Portland Pattern Repository (the *real* wiki) these days!
