A New Search Engine

On Monday, the startup Blekko released a beta version of a new search engine designed to filter out spam and untrustworthy sites from searches. Users can search within "slashtags" created by Blekko for information on various topics such as baseball, botany, and Buddhism. Searching within these slashtags yields sites determined to be of a high quality. Users can also create their own slashtags for searching across a selected group of sites, and share these slashtags with others. See the New York Times article.
