Stumpedia.com – a new search engine
February 28th, 2008 by Dan
Move over Google! If stumpedia has its way, it could be the next best thing since sliced bread. Or, sort of. Stumpedia is the new search engine in town. Unlike other search engines that are automated, Stumpedia claims to rely solely on human submissions, votes and categorization in order to rank relevant website search results.
There are no bots that go out and spider the Internet. Instead, the search engine plans to rely solely on the discretion of its human members to review and vet websites, and assign them to relevant keywords. In this way, it hopes to become an amalgam of a human edited directory, an encyclopedia and a search engine. It also hopes to eliminate all spam by the sheer qualifiying eye of the human reviewer.
Whether this business model can succeed is anyone’s guess. The name itself isn’t particularly imaginative, colorful or even meaningful. Still, its a whole new approach to Internet organization and navigation. The search engine, like other inventions of man, will evolve, and Stumpedia may be one such stump along the way.
