Qwiki for Web

What Qwiki offers

Qwiki is a web application that turns scattered internet content into short, multimedia summaries. Rather than serving plain links or text, it compiles video clips, written snippets and audio into a single, narrated presentation so you can grasp a topic quickly and visually.

How it works

Type a topic into the search field, pick one of the suggestions, and Qwiki assembles relevant images, video, text and audio into an automated audiovisual clip. If something in that clip piques your interest, you can follow links to related Qwikis and continue exploring connected topics.

Feedback and improvement

Even though the platform is still developing, it already covers a wide range of subjects. Visitors — whether signed up or not — can leave feedback on individual Qwikis, recommending better images, different videos or improvements to sound quality. That community input helps the presentations get progressively more accurate and engaging as more people participate.

Accounts, sharing and limitations

There are multiple sharing options so you can send Qwikis to others easily. Creating an account gives you basic controls like managing when to receive email updates, but it doesn’t yet unlock many additional features beyond that.

Alternative to try

If you’re looking for a different kind of tool—more focused on maps and location data—Google Maps (free) is a straightforward alternative.

Final thoughts

Qwiki represents a fresh, expanding approach to making the mass of online information easier to digest by packaging it into concise, multimedia “information experiences.” As the platform matures and users contribute feedback, its content and presentation are likely to improve.
