Search Engine

Is it possible to run a simple search engine without a billion dollars?

Inspiration & philosophy

  • Prototyping a personal search engine > Observations that make helpful for a successful prototype I don't need to crawl the whole web just the pages I'm interested. I don't need to create or monitor a recursive web crawler I avoid junk because I'm curating the sources through my existing web reading practices I am targeting a small search corpus, approximately 100,000 pages or so. I am only indexing HTML and plain text

  • A vision for search

  • I want a new folksonomy
