SearchMe
Posted by Ben Harris
The ULTIMATE new search website.
Ok, over the past 18 months or so, we have seen many new search websites claiming to be the best, too many to list really. But this one has really impressed me. It may only be beta, but im still using it daily!
Basically, its a graphical search engine where you can basically find exactly what you are looking for with the least effort.
It is graphically so nice to use, they have two themes to choose from at the moment. When you want to search, you just
browse in and enter your search term. For this example, lets say you want to search for ”driving”, ok, there are thousands of results. But what I really want is to look at car companies, SearchMe generates about 8-10 categories for your keyword, so I can just click the “Car Companies” button, and then only results from car companies are show. Ok, its not perfect, but thats why its still in the beta stages.
I have to admit up to here they have just made it easier, but then what about when your looking through all of those results.
What if you could see the sites in the search! Well with SearchMe, you can. Screenshot of search results for aeroplane below. (I also selected the online games category at the top).
For those who arent ready to move straight into the deep end with the full on graphical display, you can also drag the little
button at the bottom up to view the text listings, shown below.
The listings are also syncronised with the images, so if you select a listing, it goes to a preview in the top pane.
This is a great site. You can sign up to their beta on their main page here!
Cheers for reading,
