Ask.com and Snap.com Let You Search In More Powerful Ways
Permenant Link To: Ask.com and Snap.com Let You Search In More Powerful Ways
Here are a couple of new/updated search tools, both of which I think are outstanding!
First, Snap.com has added an image search engine to their site. Unlike most image search engines that simply provide thumbnails of image results, Snap has turned the whole thing into an experience - kind of like an interactive slideshow.
Check out this search for sanibel island.
Not only is the results page clean and well organized, but it's interactive. You can navigate the results using the arrow keys on your keyboard. Very well done!
On another search front, Ask.com has silently launched an overall update to their various search tools, and I've got to say, they have created an interface that looks and works better than almost any other search interface out there.
If you want to give it a spin for yourself, check out the X, AskX.com (cool way for Ask to launch this).
Besides Google, Ask is quickly becoming my 2nd favorite search engine. These guys are really putting some amazing functionality into it. Be sure to try it yourself.

Keep it Clean.
Foul and offensive language is not only moronic and childish, but any posts containing it WILL be deleted!
Play Nice.
Posts containing personal attacks of any kind will be deleted. If you disagree with someone's opinion, provide an opposing one, without attacking the person. For example, "Derek, your stance on eating doughnuts will harm future generations." Not, "Derek, you're an idiot, and your stance on eating doughnuts is the dumbest thing I've ever heard..."
Religion and Politics .
Once again, since this site carries my name, posts containing religious and/or political views (nice or not) will be deleted.
Stay on Topic - Where Possible.
I know it's easy to get off on another tangent, and it's not really that big of a deal, but try to confine your comments to the discussion at hand. :)
