Visualising your search engine results.....Spezify
I am always interested in trying something new, so when I was alerted to Spezify it only seemed fair to give it a whirl. What is interesting about Spezify is that as a search tool it presents results from a large number of websites in different visual ways. Its aim is to provide you with a good overview of a subject with removal of blue links towards, just pictures. All media types are mixed so there is no difference in results from regular websites, blogs, videos, microblogs and images. They say they offer extensive and diverse results to help you build the bigger picture. My experience in using has been very good to OK, it really depend on what you are looking for. But why not give it a whirl, I was surprised at some of the range and depth of results I got.
