Google Live Search: See Search Results as You Type

Google tests a new search interface that updates the results as you type a query. In this experiment, you never have to press Enter or click on the "Search" button to see the results because Google constantly retrieves the results for your query.

Swingly - Hybrid human/machine learning Q&A site, 100B answers

Swingly says it has all of them beat because machine-drive Q A services are too shallow while human-driven ones are too esoteric — Swingly aims to take the best of both worlds. And so far, they’ve mined the web for over 100 billion question and answer pairings to link up.

Google Book Search settlement undermines democracy

Google_book_search
The limits imposed on the free access to information through Google Book Search are pretty restrictive. A user can only view a few pages of a book before an arbitrary limit is reached, which the publishers determine because they hold the copyright. This is completely undemocratic and flies in the face of free access to knowledge.

Google Search Goes Real Time -- InformationWeek

Do we really want our devices to be better recognizers and translators than we are? Do we expect it? Serendipity anyone? Google pushes store and inventory recognition from your "place", and image recognition from your handheld photo, and OMG real-time translation of conversations!! Zoweee!

Bing suffers brief outage

In what could be a blow to its image, Microsoft's main Bing search site suffered through an outage on Thursday evening. Visitors to Bing.com were getting a browser error message rather than a search bar. Service was down for at least 45 minutes before being restored around 7:10 p.m. PST.

SEO is a con

Search Engine Optimization is not a legitimate form of marketing. It should not be undertaken by people with brains or souls. If someone charges you for SEO, you have been conned. First came the web, and it was a mess. Servers went up everywhere, the net connected them all, pages bloomed like flowers, and no one could find a damn thing.

Goby.com - A New Search Engine Specializing in Fun

If you’re like me, you like to make the most out of what little free time you have. One way of finding ideas for activities without wasting precious minutes is by searching online. But sometimes the process of browsing the Web can suck you in and waste more time than it saves. This week, I tested a tool called Goby (pronounced go-be), www.goby.com, which works as an activity search engine to help you find things to do. It tries to be simple enough so that you can get some ideas and start doing the things you want to do rather than wasting hours in front of the computer.
