Im really tired of sites trying to centralize and own this content. The key to decentralizing and empowering individuals to own their content is enabling distribution and discovery. New search engines are essential to the web we want.
That would be nice especially since hopefully it would mean there would be a search engine I could use and not get shopping results. It seems like anytime I search for something I get shopping results so I have to be more specific and type more which is inconvenient. Wikipedia used to be the first result for many things I search for now it pretty much never is. It's been getting worse every year.
On a pretty unrelated note, it would also be nice if I could search the play app store without getting games in my results. There's pretty much a game related to everything I want to search for. Very annoying.
google will neatly incorporate their results in their index and then people will go back to searching in google. I mean it happens with all major sites (stackoverflow, shopping results, diy/pinterest). Only twitter and facebook , who completely block their content from google get away. Perhaps we should take a lesson or two from them.
- a search engine for blogs
- a search engine for dev questions
- a search engine for shopping
- a search engine for diy
etc.
