Building a Search Engine from Scratch
I don’t see how this will ultimately be successful.<p>They’re basically reverse engineering Google by looking at user logs.<p>Google will always have a leg up here because they have all the Google data.<p>And even if it does work for a while, there still needs to be the original signal to copy.  Someone will have to crawl the web and index content.<p>I’m super eager to find new approaches to search, but another Google clone is not that.
