Duncan Riley continues his verbal diarrhea over at TechCrunch spewing shit over the world for Web 2.0 fanboys to lap up. Today, we note the lovely NoFoodHere which is a quaint search engine that allows tabbed searching with live updating of results to give you an endless stream of useless information. It’s such revolutionary thought, that Duncan felt the need to profile it. Let’s review the two key features:

1. Tabbed Searching = Worthless. You can already do that with your browser. This feature is completely worthless. How many people actually run multiple searches at once? You are usually searching for a specific piece of information. Now what might be useful is a search that let you list a set of terms to pair with another to run queries on all of them. For example, if I want to write a paper and want to know the mayor of 10 different cities, perhaps I could input the 10 city names and then the term “mayor” and it would search for all 10 mayors at once. That would be mildly useful. This feature however, is not.

2. Live Updating of Search Results = Endless Annoyance. The vast majority of people (perhaps 90% +) choose one of the first three search results. After the first 10 results, there are almost no takers. I really doubt many people give a rat’s ass about reading the 2018th result. This feature is again, totally worthless.

There’s no real innovation here which also reminds us that the folks at NoFoodHere have no brain either.

Another one bites the dust. Duncan continues to impress us with his marvelous control of the English language by creating incomplete sentences and run-ons in a mere 4 paragraph blurb. It’s a good thing he’s a writer for a serious publication like TechCrunch.
