wykop.pl is a Polish social networking internet service, originally founded on December 25, 2005. It is modeled after the American website digg.com (wykop in Polish language means unearth or digg out). The basic idea behind wykop.pl is the collection of potentially interesting internet based information and making them available to users. The server is managed by the Poznan company "Wykop sp.", which is owned by the Dutch firm "Gravest".
ReadWriteWeb described wykop as a "clone" of Digg. As of 2006, Sebastian Kwiecień, owner of the blog web20.pl, said that it was probably Poland's most popular Web 2.0 website.[1]
