Now wouldn't this be a nice thing to add to an online learning resource. " A month or two ago, Stefan Maglenski released a nifty hack that scanned BBC news pages for proper nouns and turned them into hyperlinks if the phrase in question has a Wikipedia entry. Clever! The Wikipedizer is a simple RESTful web service based on Stefan's idea (and loosely on his code). Pass it a URL, get back a list of related Wikipedia entries."
