As you browse through the dozens of web pages to look for your information, passing through hundreds of irrelevant results you had always wished how your search could be localized and structured. Finding something specific has always been a tricky ground that Internet has been balancing upon, even when these search engines claim themselves in having advanced and complicated filtering criteria. In spite of such precautions we the browsers are at the end of numerous advertisements and irrelevant information whenever we are faced with searching something from the Internet.
Spock.com is a new website or a search engines that looks to get past all these underlying problems that internet search has to offer. This is comparatively a new method of search where results are given out on subjects on the way they are tagged. Though it sounds confusing it is one of the best ways to search for anything on the internet and it is us the users ho determine the importance of the things that are being searched. In this method, the spock staff and the users assign tags on which others can vote which in turn helps to maintain relevance.
Spock is not just a search engine but can also be a social network, but can also be categorized under the terminology of a social networking website. So, what this website does is that pages on Facebook and MySpace and a few other social sites can be returned as a result as a result friends are easier to find on Spock. Here, let me show you what results can look like. I did a search for Charles Dickens, an author and these were the results. The results page pulls up a series of tags that show me different ways Dickens is categorized, as well as internet links and so forth.
