Search engine for Gv thinkers: KartOO

For those who are strong Gv thinkers, there is a search engine my associate (Jeff Evans) pointed me to. It is KartOO. As described at the site:
  • KartOO is a metasearch engine with visual display interfaces. When you click on OK, KartOO launches the query to a set of search engines, gathers the results, compiles them and represents them in a series of interactive maps through a proprietary algorithm.
Just type in your regular search terms and you are presented a Gv presentation of the search results. Information is presented in words, icons (for web pages), different shades of color, and when you put your cursor over a term, lines appear that demonstrate links to other terms.

I saved a search and it can be viewed by clicking here. The line links are not present in the file I saved and can only be viewed by doing your own search and giving it a try.

I have added a window for this search engine below my blog counter in the sidebar. Enjoy.
