MATEOSQUARED’S iSEARCH

These guys claim to be a personal search agent for people who are overwhelmed by search results, and would like to better organize their results. This hasn’t been claimed before…

All Th.at is better than other search sites, that combine several search engines to provide more relevant results with less clicks. Besides indexing search engines, AllTha.at allows visitors to enter other sites as well, that are not search related.

The process of search can be time consuming, laborious and frankly overwhelming depending on how many results you need to sift through. Search engines are very good at what they do but often return way too many results. Recently, there have been lots of sites popping up using new algorithms that are trying to search “better” by focusing on verticals such as travel, jobs, cars, etc. We are trying to create a tool that allows you to use all of them… thus “Allth.at”.

By allowing users to search across multiple engines and favorite URL’s at the same time (and further save those searches) we strive to not only help you find what you are looking for, but to cut down the amount of “surf time” that it takes to do so.

So I did a search on my one of my favorite topics, Barack Obama, and AllTha.at searched Google, Yahoo!, eBay and Amazon by default. Those results were OK, but I wanted more, so I added Digg and MSN. Even better results. But I really wanted something more, so I added the Barack Obama 08 Web site. About average. There are still a few bugs, but overall the performance was really good.

Finally, AllTh.at (hard to type) provides RSS feeds and e-mail alerts once people become registered and save their search results. Others are offering this feature, but this company seems to have the edge with its multi-site search option.
