Gloofi.com - Web 3.0 Search: You Build It

Gloofi is the next gen in web where names get weirder and tech gets better (in theory). Gloofi claims to be the first Web 3.0 search. What does that mean exactly? More collaboration? A more intimate network? For Gloofi it means interactive semantic search. Gloofi wants you to help build its search engine by letting you control what gets in and what doesn’t. In other words, it’s fully user controlled and combines tag search, global search, and human search with semantic capabilities. What’s more. The more you participate, the more points you’ll get, and the more points accrued, the more money you get. Participate by adding sites and pages, translating them or helping with development. It’s very alpha right now, so don’t expect a lot. But the future looks promising.

“gloofi is the first fully user controlled search engine bringing Tag search, Global search, Human search and Semantic search capabilities to you.
gloofi is not using an existing index, you are building the index and controlling it by approving/disapproving sites and content as well as voting and commenting it. You have the chance to create the best search result there is by being involved in the whole quality process.”

Gloofi has a smart idea—human powered search. With users getting to be more hands on, the content created may be better quality and more useful than your average search.

Will users like the idea of having to work for search? Why such a shoddy design? Will it be a successful model?
