Looking to explore a subject? a news story? the latest-and-greatest? Kosmix might serve you better than traditional search engines. Results on this search engine seem to target the search results from ALL OVER the internet. Unlike Google and Yahoo, who try to give you the one perfect match to your query at top and less-likely matches thereon; Kosmix organizes everything it can find about your query, and list the top-hits in categories. For example, searching for Chocolates gives you a result page where google results for chocolates are in a box, results specific to blogs are in another box, images, videos, shopping, facts, etc. is also organized in a box.

It’s a nice idea. I would use it when I’m trying to find a wide array of information about a topic rather than the one ultimate Web site that has every info.

Give it a try. Here are some search terms to begin with: Bollywood, Muffins, Yosemite, DOS, Fart
