From Vivisimo comes, Clutsy the Search Engine

in Search

From Vivisimo comes, Clutsy the search engine which has elicited guffaws over it’s name, coined to evoke a clustered set of search results but instead brings to mind a buck-toothed, all-thumbed version of the more refined Mr. Jeeves. The jury is still out for me on this as I’m so well-trained that I usually am able to throw enough contextual keywords into a query to get to what I’m looking for but Clutsy’s Clustering Engine (sound’s like a book I might read to my 5 year old) does shine when put to the “polish” test. Are you talking about the people, the sausage, the language, or something shiny? Clutsy will parse it out for you and give you several paths to try.
