The internet search engines are constantly evolving. The problem with older search engines like Google, is they are based on methodical and robotic algorithms. The future of search engines will include some social or “voting” aspect to it.
Spock is a unique new people search application where people can be searched by name, e-mail, or tag (personal attribute such as blind, curly hair, accountant, etc). With Spock.com users can easily contribute information and pictures about themselves and others. A Spock search result will let you know where else that person can be found by displaying links to a blog, LinkedIn profile, myspace page, etc. Whether you're looking for a web designer in Seattle, or a friend from high school, with Spock you can easily search people in a more efficient way than on Google or Yahoo. Spock is good for professional and social purposes as well.
When I was testing it I did not know what to type in at first so I simply went for a search on "Engineering", what I got for my time was no less than ten additional links pertaining to my search and forty pictures. This was getting to be fun.

I am sure everyone here can come up with some rather interesting ones as well and I would love to hear about any really good ones you find.

I feel confident that Spock.com will be a huge success in the future and I urge everyone to stop in, join and search, whether you are searching for a particular person or for random tags to see what comes up, I believe you will be as impressed as I was.
