Here's something fun for you to try...
Most if not all of you are probably familiar with visual search results: seeing a visual representation of your search results instead of a group of text links. If you've ever used Google Image Search then you know what I'm talking about.
Below are two search engines that have put a new spin on visual search results.
Searchme and Viewzi not only allow you to search and see pictures, but they also allow you to see screenshots of the web pages returned for a standard search. While the technology may be a little slower, it does give you a chance to preview the page before you actually visit it.
After you've used these two search engines, leave a comment and let me know what you think.

These are great links to great search engines.
I really liked the image search function on the Searchme website. The image results are displayed in a revolving circle which gives the site a "Vista" look.
Visual search engines have never appealed to me but these two are worth a look.
I liked the searchme better. It certainly makes the search more interesting. You can actually see what you're potentially about to view. It'll also cut down time on searching for the wrong thing.
It produced accurate results, but I think they were way too slow. Google is the most accurate and fastest search engine in the world. The absolute winner for Google is speed though, without that people would not use it. The majority of the population want speed over quality. If Searchme and Viewzi want to succeed, they need speed it up to make it look seamless.
I really liked those search engines. I especially like the SearchMe website better because I can see what i am about to view. I don't have to worry about those links. I can see it before I go into it.
I enjoyed exploring Searchme and Viewzi visual search engines.
Viewzi wasn't very interest because it wasn't enough to view. Bloggers have questions about the search engine, plus the search engine still have new features coming soon.
I enjoyed exploring searchme search engine because of the way the links are displayed. I like how you click on a link and zoom in with the magnetfied glass in the bottom right hand corner and how it makes your txt looks. I played with adding stacks, music, and videos; I even downloaded the searchme toolbar on my computer.
I liked the Searchme better. It was more interesting. At the end of the day I rather just use Google because it's what I am use to.
