How to improve Internet searches

At this stage of technological development, following the years of Internet growth, after having seen the rise and fall of “dot com” businesses, in this globalized world, it can often seem that every new idea has already been invented, designed and put into place. However, there is still plenty of room for improvement; there are still many new ideas to explore in all arenas of the online world. And that includes the terrain of search engines.

The problem is how to improve Internet searches when neither Microsoft nor Yahoo! have been able to compete with Google, both having reached the conclusion that the battle for premiership in this sector is already essentially lost. The truth is that there is no real reason why internet users should stop using something that not only works, but that works very well, for another system with fewer resources and less mileage. The answer lies, perhaps, in going beyond the search itself, and instead providing the user with new features that raise the quality.

More than a search engine

It with this idea that Finday was born. It is a service that aspires to be something more than a search engine. A tool that not only provides the clearest and most accurate search results from Google, but that also brings user opinion to the terrain of searches. A web directory that, in short, grows and develops within the bosom of an active and participatory community.

Naturally, democratizing Internet searches is not an easy job, and it’s going to require a concerted effort. Yet, although we already know the magnitude of the task ahead of us, we have great sense of excitement at seeing it being made a reality.

In the following articles, we will try to pass on this enthusiasm, giving you the most fundamental keys of what formed – and what continue to form today – the development of Finday. As such, you will be able to see the decisions that have oriented that development of some of the most attractive and innovative features that we present to you first-hand. We hope that you will find this series of entries both entertaining and interesting.
