So a friend of mine pointed me over to Wikia Search. I had seen this site before but really didn't have any interest at the time and long forgotten about it. So I decided to actually read what they had to say, at least on their home page. I don't quite agree that todays Search Engines are broken, but ok. I kept reading to find out they want a people-powered search engine. Very ambitious and one that Google Answers failed at and Yahoo Answers is doing just so-so with.
The ability to do a socially defined (ie, people-powered search results) search is very difficult. I can't wait to see how the user edited search results looks like. Should be quite interested and will be very curious to see if it actually is used by anyone or has relevant results. Are Google's results so irrelevant? Or Yahoos? I think both are doing well myself.
So Why blog about this? - Well I am always for open source and this is an open source search engine community project. So why not blog about it in the hopes that somebody (not me!) with time on their hands and some talent may contribute to the project. Is this you? :)

Yahoo had a Search Engine Weather Report Update and while they don't say anything my analysis shows that One Way Links , aka backlinks play a much more prominent role in your site rankings. So all you SEO wannabes, get busy building more backlinks if you were not already. Now if MSN would get their head out of the sand. Yahoo isn't there yet either but at least their trend is to continual improvement. MSN results have definitely not improved in the last 6 months.

There is way to use google with no search ads if you want. I have been using this and its almost odd to NOT see the ads. I can not decide if I like it with or with out ads. Feel free to send us a comment and let us know which you prefer!

Wiki Seek Startup gets going at WikiSeek.com. This interesting new startup company is making a business out of searching wikipedia. After exploring it a little bit, its more then the name implies. IF you try this search for galapagos you will see the search is not just of wikipedia. The search results seemed very good for non-wiki results as well. So there is more research to be done on this particular search engine but so far, I am finding it quite useful for research on wiki-type topics.

Google announced on Wednesday (March 14, 2007) that it would begin to wrap a cloak of anonymity around user search queries. Do not think you are safe! Google also said they will hold onto personal identifying information for 18 to 24 months. This timetable is to try and lament the hodgepodge of laws around the world about how long search engines may hold onto personal identifying information.
Authorities could still demand Google give this information to them or even to hold onto personal information for longer. I think the point is Google and the governments of the world have access to all your moves.
Is this a concern to you? Probably not and if it is I hope you know how to use a proxy server. If not, Google it. :)
