New Find on the Internet

Here's an interesting site. "Find.com"

Find.com Search Engine

Find

Simple enough, I guess. Find.com is half Google ads and half search results. It's beauty lies in its URL simplicity.

Check this out, I searched for "Bad Boys" on a handful of search engines, and find.com was by far the most straight-forward.

Here's some URL samples that will change your perspective.
http://find.com/bad_boys
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=bad+boys&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=
http://www.ask.com/web?q=bad+boys&search=search&qsrc=0&o=0&l=dir

I'm not ready to say that this is a complete search revolution, merely based on URL size. There may also be some speed optimization on their very near schedule.

However, this is almost the Tinyurl of all search engines. Don't be surprised if this site gets big.

The beauty of TinyURL was the ability to give a very small number of digits to a friend, and have them be able to go to an impossible-to-memorize internet location. With find.com, you can easily type in your search directly from the address bar. Want to look up ducks? Just type in find.com/ducks. Using a search engine as user friendly as Google would introduce unecessary steps. That is, "Type URL" -> "Type search". Find.com is as simple as just, "Type URL".

That's okay by me. Anything I can use that will speed up my internet life, I'll take.

Find People
Find Jobs
Find Friend
