Is anyone a regular user of this search engine (http://vivisimo.com/)? I just found out about it and it seems to be pretty interesting, with some distinct advantages to searching, but I'm wondering how it stacks up to others, most notably Google.
For those who are unfamiliar with Vivisimo, it not only searches, but categorizes all of the results for easier reference once the initial search is completed. Theoretically, rather than searching through a ton of Google pages that provide responsive links in no apparent order (I assume), this would allow you to look at collected links under certain topic headings, making it easier and quicker to find what you are looking for.
I'm just wondering if it has a comparable range to Google. Categorization is great, but if it only categorizes 25% of what Google finds, it might not be worth it.
Thanks!
