Dirk Lewandowsky erklärt in einem kurzen Artikel, was neue Suchmaschinen wie You.com, Brave Search und Neeva auszeichnet (via Information Literacy Weblog):
“In contrast, these new search engines show that different interpretations of the web’s content are possible. And that it’s not only the job of the search engine to interpret this content but also the users’ choice what type of results they prefer. We can only hope that many users will try out regaining control over the results, whether with one of the search engines mentioned or others. Maybe even Google or its main competitor Bing will see the value in letting users decide on sources according to their preferences. In that sense, we may be at a turning point in the history of search engines – and all without fancy artificial intelligence. Giving users control over search results may benefit them more than slight improvements in the overall relevance of results.”
