Launch of Snap

The Snap search engine is launch today by Idealab, the guys behind Overture. Here is my first experience :

Like
  • Transparency for the stats they give you
  • Clustering
  • Refine the results
  • Sort on multiple criteria

Disliked
  • Frame results page
  • The small database
  • Pertinance of results caused by Web Popularity
  • Speed


For now, it will be for me a good metric tool, but if the database going bigger and if they fix relevancy and framed results, it will be a very good competitor.
