Fun to use, and a pretty good example of semantic web.

This is quite promising and impressive.

However, you need someone to work on the English right away. "Opinion Analizer" is... not quite what you think it means.

As a test I looked for "lenovo x300" as I know that similiarly named products exist, but one of the first opinions came back as "The Dell Latitude X300 is a very good choice for those who want prime performance with premium..." so while I think it's a great concept (and it will definitely get better!), I'd take a good look at the model you're using to ensure that it indeed disambiguates as necessary.

Overall, I really like the idea, and I think it's visually implemented very well. It packs a lot of data on to one screen (nicely).

How is this the semantic web?

prakash• 18 years ago

Welcome to 2008! Semantic is the new Web 2.0.

This is going to be the next most overused term ever, suddenly you will have sematic widgets, semantic dating sites and semantic platforms. sigh!

I typed in "toaster," and it said, "Seems to be a Television..."

I tried out a couple different sites. twitter, pownce, evite.

It seems like it was somewhat on spot, twitter having about 75% favorable reviews, rest due to downtimes. However, pownce had 100%, which seems like it probably didn't trawl the web for enough mentions of it.

Evite, had about 20% hates. I had expected it to be higher. I too hate eVite.

I remember this sort of thing before at another startup, and its processing was faster, but I don't know where they disappeared to.

I typed Art of Computer Programming and ball is still spinning for last 5 minutes ;(

It wasn't working for my first few searches, but I tried "Cybershot" and got some results, I could see how this would be useful in looking for reviews.

I'm not sure what to say about the use of a cartoon dog in a search tool, however...
