New Search Engine Takes "Dyve" Into the Dark Web

CWmike writes "DeepDyve has launched its free search engine that can be used to access databases, scholarly journals, unstructured information and other data sources in the so-called 'Deep Web' or 'Dark Web,' where traditional search technologies don't work. The company partnered with owners of private technical publications, databases, scholarly publications and unstructured data to gain access to content overlooked by other engines. Google said earlier this month that it was adding the ability to search PDF documents. In April, Google said it was investigating how to index HTML forms such as drop-down boxes and select menus, another part of the Dark Web."

    They're also looking into indexing images based on whether they contain boobies.

    You mean like these boobies? What about these great tits? And would you tap that ass?

    Consider that at least 75% of the browsing public never gets much deeper than a Google image search for "cute puppies," or some such nonsense.

    Yes, but you have to realize that some of that 75% is going to want to see MORE cute puppies they couldn't with just google image search.
