There is a new search engine at www.tigertom.uk and I must say that it is an interesting concept. What it does is search not only their own database, but other search engines, to give you the most accurate results. While this sounds great in theory, it makes the search time take a while, while it connects to those other search engines. They also have one other feature that stands out, and that is that under the search bar is a graph of the most popular searches, while it is an interesting concept, and adds a splash of color to what would otherwise be a plain white page, it feels out of place on the front page. If it were on a page specifically for that, would be much better, but it definitely adds a feature that other search engines leave out. As it stands, this site isn’t going to be taking the place of your favorite search engine, but given time, if they can speed up the connectivity between their server and the other search engines, and possibly an easier to remember domain name, it could grow to be something extremely powerful.

Yikes… that does sound like some waiting that you must do… as long as you get the response that you want, I think utilizing that search engine isn’t a bad thing
