Ask Slashdot: What Features Would You Like In a Search Engine?

New submitter nicolas.slusarenko writes Nowadays, there is one dominant search engine in the world among few alternatives. I have the impression that the majority of users think that it is the best possible service that could be made. I am sure that we could have a better search engine. During my spare time I been developing Trokam, an online search engine.

Well, those are mine. What features would you like in a search engine?
