If you’re looking for a fresh take on internet searching, please take a look at this prototype.

The long term goal of the company behind beyondadze is this: The search engines we have at the moment are simple flint tools in comparison with what we really need and what will be available in 10 years time. beyondadze aims to develop a number of specialised search tools that really make a difference to the user’s ability to find relevant information.

Currently, beyondadze has only one tool, but it’s potentially quite a powerful one. ThreeCore was developed to combat the problem of trying to find useful websites (note: websites, not pages). The problem you face if you’re trying to identify a website that has a wealth of high-value information on a range of related topics is that, using the current search engines, as you increase the number of search terms, so the value of the pages they find plummets.

Suppose you’re looking for a number of good articles on medical research. So you type in “medical research cystic fibrosis oncology asthma”. The chances of a single page on the internet having high-value information on all these three topics is very remote.

ThreeCore, beyondadze’s first offering solves this problem.
