Today I saw another search engine by google named http://www.SearchMash.com which is hosted on Google Server itself.

When Google itself is there as the REAL good and fast Search engine - then why searchmash ? After researching on the web I found - SearchMash is a search engine that means to “test innovative user interfaces.” Among its features are the ability to reorder search results, a URL menu, image results on the same page as web results, and continuous scrolling results. Aside from its privacy policy and terms of service, there is no Google branding on the site.

What’s the  Extra Feature in it - which is not in existing Google Search Engine or better than the present one.

It is totally AJAX based Frontend.

• Image search result appears along with web search simultaneously in 2 panels.
• It fetches result from web page, image and news simultaneously.
• There is a combo that helps you select your search territory (web page, image etc).
• The url of result page is user friendly.
• Also you can give feedback about which result attracted you both. That can be used to bring down the SEO spam sites.

In its continuing quest to index more and more information, Google on Wednesday introduced Google News Archive Search, which aims to make searchable thousands of newspapers, magazines and publications. Some of the material dates back to the 1700s, the company says.
Unlike the scanning of books, the inclusion of periodicals into search engines is something the industry has been pushing for. Much of their content is considered part of the “dark Web,” meaning modern search engines cannot index the material due to their structure or design.

To ease scouring through articles, search results can be arranged by the standard method, or through a timeline. Using that timeline, searches for a subject like “Bill Clinton” would first show the year 1992, when Clinton began to appear in national news frequently during his initial presidential run.

Both free and for-pay services would be included in the index, although Google says it will not make any money through the service. While the total number of publications available were not disclosed, partners include the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post and Time.

Whether or not publications make their content available for free is up to them. For example, Time will likely make its entire catalog back to 1923 available at no cost, whereas the New York Times and Washington Post would redirect users to a site where they can purchase the individual article.

Analysts suspect that Google’s News Archive Search could eventually expand into video, allowing users to search for video clips of major news stories over the years.
