Arik Hesseldahl of Forbes looks at recent developments in search, Jux2 and Firefox search add-ons.

A snippet from the Forbes article ...

"The other thing I've noticed about search is that there are so many new ways to search--all the majors are adding features all the time, while upstarts are coming up with interesting ideas in search technology--that it's tough to keep track of them all. There's an inherent problem in searching for search sites."

... One thing I've found after some ten years of searching the Internet for useful information is that there really is no single way to get the job done right every time. Search engines are a little like ice cream: Most everyone likes the old standbys--and their own particular flavors for their own reasons. "Googling" entered popular parlance for a reason, but there are times when getting outside the Google universe can make a difference."
