Take in the View

One of the coolest sites I've come across lately and the topic of my first post here; comes in the form of a search engine. I know I know, google does a hundred more things than you need it to already. Trust me if you haven't already checkout the newly launched site. Viewzi.com "Viewzi is a new and highly visual way to search that brings all your favorite stuff together in one place."



Still in beta, when you first load the site. The layout is clean and pretty simple, hopefully in time they’ll find some way to give visitors a preview of just how nifty this site is from the start. Type in your search, and then be given over a dozen different categories aka ‘views’ to browse; depending on how specific your search is. All presented in a visually pleasing layout. A few of the categories/views include: (MP3) which will play snippets and sound clips or full songs depending on your search criteria. (Video x3 View) which loads results from sites such as youtube, blinkx and veoh. Taking advantage of blinkx’s motion preview thumbnails give the page a cool look as it loads. (4 sources view) which as near as I can tell visually brings you the top results from 4 sources. Google.com Yahoo.com MSN.com and ASK.com This seems like the perfect site to use on the new iPhones. If anyone gets a chance to test that out be sure to lets us know.

A new way to search taking advantage of the abilities of modern computers. It may not knock Google off the top spot anytime soon but Viewzi.com is certainly a new and innovative way to search; while taking in an interesting view.
