Viewzi- A Visual Search Engine
November 17th, 2008 Heather Kovar Posted in Heather Kovar |
What could possibly be on the web that can’t already find with Google, Yahoo, Dogpile, MSN, and the more than 50 engines
listed on this page?
Visual people might want to check out Viewzi.com.
Giovanni Galluci, who works at the Dallas based Viewzi sent me an email saying “This new site truly represents the future of search. Viewzi is not simply a search engine, but a search platform able to morph into any number of user interfaces using any number of different data sources as the situation calls for.”
Here are some example searches:
Album search for Pearl Jam
MP3 search on Britney Spears
Video search for Barack Obama
News search on the Wall Street Bailout
Carrie Underwood Picture search
Book search Stephen Colbert
Timeline search U2
Galluci also said the company has found that television reporters and journalists have taken quite a fancy to us for all kinds of rich media searches on the web. He adds that Laptop Magazine just named Viewzi.com one of its top 50 products of 2008.
Let me know what you think. I’m still trying out all the applications.
