Quote to Note: Magical Blekko Search

November 7, 2010

Here’s a quote that caught my attention. No, it is not the “magical” reference. I found the passage in “How to Use Blekko to Rock at Your Job”L

As a regular and heavy user of Custom Search Engines, I’ve got some ideas about why most people are unlikely to appreciate the beauty and power of Blekko.

I don’t have a strong opinion about any search system today. What I find interesting is that search and retrieval that requires “work” or “effort” on the part of the user, appeals to a segment of the great searching unwashed. The big revenue seems to be flowing to “we think for you” systems. With Google grappling with hundreds of Angry Bird legal eagles, maybe there is a chance for an alternative Web search system. To achieve that financial pay dirt, I hope that users “appreciate the beauty and power of Blekko.”

Great quote.
