Is this posted in the correct forum? I have given my comments here,



but can repeat them for those who do not want to scroll those posts.

"Some comments.

• Isn't that what a news Bot does?
• How representative will it be? I would like to see the algorithme that searched x% of the sites on the internet in y seconds.
• Isn't it a great danger that that engine will be a "spamengine"?
• Note that the index of a SE is checked for quality by advanced filters and algorithms.
• IMO, quality portals like Business.com - The Business Search Engine® and Business Directory for Business Information will increase in importance, since more and more spam / scam is found on the SERP's. Is there a scientific report of how much scam is found on the SERP's? More precisely, how many (% of eShoppers) have bought from a site they found on the SERP's without ever seeing the product / service?
• There is no lack of information on the internet. Sooner the opposite. The problem is to find the correct one. I think it is not difficult for a BOT programmer to make such an engine. The problem is how good it is by different measures, some of them mentioned above.
• Web services, web applications and XML powered sites with one uniqe source and many applications is the future. More precisely, you transform the XML node tree to another node tree like HTML, XHTML, PDF, WAP, DocBook, eBook, RSS, etc. etc. SE's have to be much more advanced to index and rank such sites. As I see it this is the greatest threat to the traditional SE's. To be more precise, SE's are good at indexing tagged data, but today, not so good at indexing webapplications like AJAX

P.S. Think of it millions of sites with billions of pages. How should a BOT be able to search a reasonable part of those sites in a reasonable time, even if

• The search was in linear time? You have to know search alogorithms to know what this is about.
• Even if the SE was spread over n datacenters? Who has the financial resources to compete with Google? Who has the human resources to manually intervene with the search algorithm and make it better?
• What about bandwith, sites down, hight traffice, slow connections, a growing memory of the BOT(s) as it (they) visit(s) more and more pages?

I do not think Google or other serious SE companies fear this SE. But I shall give it a chance and see how relevant the SERP's are. And I do not think that a serious programmer will ever try to make a real time search engine that can compete with a database / archieve based SE."

First thing, MyLiveSearch is not a search engine. They are a browser plug-in and video plainly states this. If it works like the engineers say, MyLiveSearch will probably be bought by Google.

Second, thanks helping promote the WebProNews videos. It's good to see folks getting some good use out of them.

Ok, thanks for that clarification.

Then this Untitled Page heading is confusing?

"New realtime search engine on june 2007- Watch this video"

"MyLiveSearch to revolutionize search industry".

The only way I see that you can make a reasonable relevant real time search engine is to have a lot of datacenters, restricting search to a specific IP range. Then pull out the x most relevant SERP's at each datacenter and combine them to an overall SERP set, that may increase (similar to AJAX pages being updated without having to reload the page) as you look at the results. You should have an option to choose the IP range, geographical area, country etc, you want to include in such a search. Isn't that a part of the way Google country engines function? I think Google is the best company to make such an engine.

I wait and see, but if Google plans to buy the engine, it should be good.

So Google can't be beaten cause it can buy anyone for the right price, scary !

[kgun]

What is so scaring about that? Isn't that nearly a law of economics? Other industries are dominated by a few companies, but that does not prevent that there are thousands of companies in that industry, even if the one or two biggest have a large share of the market.

it's not about Google being beaten. the point is MLS is not designed to topple Google. once again, MLS is not a search engine - they are a browser plug-in that works off of other search engine queries.

and yes, Google will probably try to buy MLS if it works like Gabriel wants it to. the question is, will he sell it them if they come calling. not sure how the above scenario can be considered scary. this type of thing happens on a daily basis in the business world.
