Exalead
Mar 4 2008, 10:08 PM EST I had never used or heard of Exalead before I had this assignment. When I got there my first impression was that it looked similar to Google. I did a search of European Union and the site had ideas on how to narrow your search. You could narrow it by searching in only specific languages, in blogs only, and related search ideas. The engine is very easy to use and has a link to search Wikipedia exclusively, which is a downfall as Wikipedia is not always reliable. Another thing I noticed was that Exalead's search results were sending me to the main webpage not a link off of the main web page. So instead of being linked to a website with a fift foot URL, I was sent to one with a www.somethingsomething.com. I found that interesting because google doesn't do that. What I liked the most was that you could view the website right from the page of results. That way you can narrow what you are looking for by if the webiste looks like something that you would like. I really liked this website and will probably use it again. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |
