New Web Engine to Redefine Searching on the Web

Otavo's Intention Engine is poised to redefine searching on the web by allowing its users to simply state what they are looking for instead of typing keywords and sifting through irrelevant results.

St. Catharines, ON (PRWEB) March 3, 2006 -- Otavo, has developed the first intention engine. A technology designed to index the unindexable content by pooling together the intentions of its users.

Intention is what drives people?s web activity. By pooling similar intentions and grouping resources according to intentions Otavo's new Intention Engine, is able to allow users to spell out their intentions in a search box, and have meaningful results returned.

The search results are generated from information found and shared by people that have had similar intentions. "It is like taking pages and pages of Google results and selecting the best ones and putting them all in one place" said Matt, one of the beta testers.

"We call each intention a quest. People join these quests for information and knowledge and are truly enriched by sharing what they find together" said Amanuel founder, and social ambassador of Otavo.

Amanuel added "The inspiration came 3 years ago, as my wife complained about being unable to find what she was looking for using the search engines" This started a 3 year obsession to finding a solution to the problem.

According to Amanuel, Otavo has made the preview version of its Intention Engine available to a small number of 'heavy web surfers' and select bloggers.

With luck, Otavo will prove popular to them ? and to the original user who sparked the idea.

Otavo.com Inc. started the intentional web revolution with its intention engine redefining the web from the visitor's point of view. For more information, visit http://otavo.com.

[Editor's comments: VERY interesting idea, but I'm worried that this is like trying to improve a hammer so users don't hit their thumb, when a small amount of training might be more effective with less effort.

From what I have seen, users don't know how to search. They think Boolean logic is some type of European stew, and quotes are only used to embarrass politicians. There is a large percentage of the population that continually says, "Oh, you know what I mean...!!" and of course we don't really because we don't have a copy of the code book they use. If this company can really help to understand the intentions of web searchers, then perhaps the same technology could be use to improve interpersonal communications. Now THERE'S a market opportunity...! (hris ]
