Grokker Search Engine Provides Visual Search Results

KeatonMill writes "The New York Times (as always, free registration) ran this article about a new search engine, called Grokker, created by a company called Groxis. Grokker builds a map of content catagories using metadata. So far, it is used in the Amazon.com online catalog and the Northern Light search engine. Groxis is also developing a version to use to search your own computer."

    slashdot is a funny beast, people jeer the monopolies and people still jeer at a small upstart trying to take on the big boys.

    You idiot. Slashdot is not a "beast", it's a group of frequently immature people who jeer at just about everything, most especially Microsoft.

    In case you handn't noticed, we /. people were not consumed by Borg, nor did we join a hive-mind collective.

    Thus, some of us jeer at monopolies, and others jeer at upstarts trying to take on the big boys.

    So, me says you need to be jeered at, for attempting to jeer at slashdot as the single, unified entity it most definitely is not.

    HA HA!
