After no activity since 2005, the last several weeks have seen additions to Gigablast’s press page. Who? Gigablast is an older search engine that has done some interesting and unique things in the page. It does have its own, unique database. Now it has databases for blog search (last 30 days only) and a Wikipedia search. Also, the main blog search page has a link to the “Most Linked-To News Posts for the Last 24 Hours” along with subsets for several different languages. Gigablast also now claims to be “the leading clean-energy search engine” with 90% of its power coming from wind energy. Strangely, the new “press news” consists of single line statements with no link to a longer story. Still, if you haven’t tried Gigablast in a while, it might be time to take a look at yet another Google alternative.
