There's a new engine on the block, it's not Google, but it's powered by it! SearchMash is its name, and finding what's relevant is what it does best.
"It's quite a challenge really: how does the Number 1 search engine on the web rewrite its search algorithm and test its effectiveness without hurting its current results and user-experience during the testing process? Sergey Brin and Larry Page seem to have figured it out: create a new search engine, and do your testing there! SearchMash is the evolution of Google, and should things go right, what Google will (soon enough) become. It tests a range of new features and methods of bringing information to the users' fingertips in more ways than immediately obvious to the eyes."

Read the article.
It's a 5-page review of SearchMash, not just a link to the site. Edit: Make that 5! |

I do like Searchmash more though (the design) That's the spam filtering at work - refer to the argument. Because they use the same indexes, the results would be the same, but for the modified algorithm. Less results = more relevant results. |
