Galaxiki - a fictional Galaxy anyone can edit

March 12, 2007

A new CorneliOS powered site is online, it's called Galaxiki and it's the first site to make use of the CorneliOS community features. But don't misunderpret this - it's not only a technological demo, it's a site that shall (hopefully) become a real living community home.

Galaxiki is a combination of a virtual galaxy and a wiki - the galaxy contains starts, planets, moons and other objects, and each object has it's own wiki page that can be edited. The goal of the site is to create some new kind of a science fiction world: you can edit solar systems, write interesting stories about fictional life forms, let them interact aso...

Many features of the site are already fully functional, but there's still some work to do... The wiki editor is not fully functional yet and the discussion boards are still missing for example - but most of these problems will be fixed until the end of March, and the real official launch is planned for eary April, so stay tuned!

Galaxiki is Linux Journal's Community Website Of The Week!

July 16, 2007

Galaxiki, a fictional galaxy anyone can edit, has been successfully launched on July 1st and I got a lot of positive feedback during the past two weeks. 400 users have signed up so far, people are naming and editing stars, planets and moons, and we already got our first award: Galaxiki is Linux Journal's community website of the week! During the weekend I also updated the look and feel of the site, expect many more new and exciting to become available within the next few months.
