Clusty searching

I am begining to like looking at search results in clusters. It is far more organized than Google's gazillion pages. You too should give Clusty.com, a brand new search engine from a Carnegie Mellon computer scientist, a spin!

Clusty launches by Vivisimo; try this clustering engine as well http://vivisimo.com

The reason why Vivisimo launched Clusty.com is because their original name wasn't catching on...unlike Google. :~)

So anyone remember older search engines before Google took over? I recall being dependent on:

- Northern Light
- Altavista
- Dogpile
- Hot Bot

Clusty looks good. I just Clusty-ed my name and it came up with a neatly organized bunch of searchers. Thanks for the tip Zunaira :)

Hey, you're welcome!

There's an interesting way to look for information at www.webbrain.com Basically, its a visual version of the Dmoz directory. Just thought of it since we're talking search engines here.

mama also work good,try this out: http://mama.com ;

Mamma.com is a "smart" metasearch engine — every time you type in a query Mamma simultaneously searches a variety of engines, directories, and deep content sites, properly formats the words and syntax for each, compiles their results in a virtual database, eliminates duplicates, and displays them in a uniform manner according to relevance. It's like using multiple search engines, all at the same time.read more
