Ask X : New AJAX Search engine.

January 7, 2007

Ask X : New AJAX Search engine from Ask.comAsk X is the new Ajax based version of Ask.com’s search engine. Although the results still is the same, some results took some time showing up.

In today’s version of Ask X, you’re not just getting back a list of links, but a slick, new three-panel interface (much like the new AskCity), combining great time-saving features like:

  • Left: A search control panel that stays with you, complete with Zoom Related Search and Search Suggestions that update as you type.
  • Middle: Results front and center to provide clutter-free information without having to scroll down the page, and Binoculars to preview results.
  • Right: A preview of other types of search results, including video, news, images, blogs, shopping, encyclopedia and more.

    Ok, since google published its personal playground on searchmash.com, it was just a question of time, when the others follow.

    But is the search such a big deal? The results are loaded dynamically, ok. But EVERY click on cache, dictionary, news, wiki, … loads a complete new site. So theres nothing special about it, eh?

    And the fact, that it takes 2 more seconds, when i want to back from the destination page to the result page is really boring.

    I actually don’t like the new AJAX Ask.com . I don’t see it improving my searches but I guess I might just be use too Google and can try something new. On other note does anyone think they utilized the AJAX technology in the best way.

    I don’t think there is alot on new innovation with Ask.com. There is some improvements but I would rather Google’s simplicity and accuracy. Nice Blog.
