Hi all,

I wanted to build something small over the weekend so I wrote Wikimark, a social bookmarking website powered by Wikidata.

You might remember DNS over Wikipedia[0]: it's a browser extension that uses Wikipedia to find the latest URL of a given website and redirects you there. Wikimark is similar. You give it a name that the website is commonly known as (e.g., "academic-torrents"), and it finds and redirects you to the latest URL of that website. The difference is, you don't need to install anything at all to use Wikimark and it still runs in your browser.

Try it:

https://academic-torrents.wikimark.net

I'll be around to answer your questions!

>> Why don't just buy a domain like DNSOver.Wiki so people can just scihub.dnsover.wiki without installing the browser extension..
