Posted under Search

I just discovered a new search engine that nobody tells about, a search engine with no news, a secret search engine: Wasalive

Fluid presentation with ajax, this website search the web, images, audio and video files. For today are indexed: 34 305 news providers, 1 477 552 news, 225 382 multimedia files

When you enter a keyword, the search fields suggest you words while you are typing.

You can also navigate and search by tags that you can find below the search field, another way to search.

5 languages are available: french, english, spanish, german, italian.

With a whois request I can see the domain was created on september 25th 2006 by a young 25 years-old guy from Marseille, France.

Wikiasari (Wikia), a serious rival for Google will be live in early 2007

Posted under Search

Amazon and Wikipedia founder, Jimmy Wales, are working together on a search engine rival to Google, based on human judgement rather than algorithms. Wikiasari should be online at the first quarter of 2007 according to Times, backed by millions dollars from Amazon and Silicon Valley Investors.
Wikiasari comes from Wiki, “quick” in hawaiian and Asari “rummaging search” in japanese.

The search engine will work with the same user-based technology as Wikipedia that allows to edit the pages.

“Google is very good at many types of search, but in many instances it produces nothing but spam and useless crap. Try searching for the term ‘Tampa hotels’, for example, and you will not get any useful results,” said Wales.
