I was contacted by someone working (for) (at) Webzzle, who want to meet me (for unknown reasons as of today).
I googled Webzzle to better identify who the guy is and what he is likely to talk to me about. And what I found let me quite dubious.
Please have a look here: http://www.webzzle.com/explorer/home.kol
There is a presentation of the concept here: http://www.webzzle.com/intl/en/help.html
I kind of now suspect what the meeting will be about and I think I'll settle down for a phone meeting rather than an expensive and time consuming face to face meeting in Paris :)
But I'd like to have your opinion about this website and the use it makes of Wikipedia.
I am asking here in particular because there are obvious technical implications. But I am sure some of you could reflect on the less technical implications ;)
thanks

This snippet from their "Why Use Webzzle" page leaves me feeling all warm and fuzzy...
