Hulbee is a new search engine which helps you search the web by adding related tags to your search queries. It uses Yahoo search index to provide you with related queries there by helping you to build queries by the click of a mouse button. It is another experiment in simplifying web search. Searching the web with Hulbee is very easy. Hulbee has a very intusive interface. While you search by entering a particular query,then Hulbee presents you with related keywords on the left side. These related queries are displayed as a tag cloud, like in a blog or a website. When you click on any of these tags, it will be added to your search query. In this way you can add more and more tags to your search query there by refining your search results.
I searched with Hulbee and it is a very interesting experience. You can also search Hulbee by entering your search queries and Hulbee will suggest you with related queries in a tag cloud. When a related tag is already in the search result, it will be highlighted. You can refine your search by adding the suggested queries. This will help you narrow your search and get quality results.
Hulbee is not a great search engine or even comparable to search engines like Google. But it will defenitely help you to make your search more simple and according to the developers of Hulbbe:"Changing of query on Hulbee is quite simple. Adding or excluding of query word takes one click. Intellectual technologies allow Hulbee to suggest possible query variants. For successful search it is enough to pick suitable one from suggested variants. Hulbee relieves from the necessity of keyboard using, it is normal to build query with mouse only."I assume that the motivation behind Hulbee is to make you use the mouse more than the keyboard while searching, but I think it is quite useful and will satisfy any kind of user. Moreover, if a search engine can provide you with what you need in one search that is better than building queries. Hulbee is efficient in that aspect too. It provides you with quality results and while adding more and more tags you will get more refined results.
The idea behind Hulbee is simple and it uses a new technology to present keywords with related themes as a cloud. Query suggestion is not a new thing and this option is availabe in search engines like Google, Yahoo, and others. The only difference is that they suggest you queries while you type your queries. Google provides you with apt query suggestions and it makes your search much faster to some extend. Hulbee implements this idea in a more different way, however, it is the search results that count.
Google also has come up with a new search feature similar to cloud search, which is called Wonder Wheel, which can be accessed by clicking on "Show options" link located on the top left of your search results. It will help you search and refine your results by clicking and navigating among queries suggested by Google.
I hope you enjoyed the post.
