London Metasearch Engine First to Connect to over 1000 Online Engines

London based search engine, Turbo10 unveiled technology connecting to over 1000 topic-specific engines on the Internet at The Twelfth International World Wide Web Conference in Budapest last week.

Turbo10 has launched the first fully automated system that creates and maintains connections to online databases en masse.

“Connecting to 1000 engines is just the tip of the iceberg. By creating an automated system we can connect to thousands more,” Nigel Hamilton Turbo10’s CEO said.

The list of engines is updated every five minutes as more engines are added. A live counter of engines can be viewed on Turbo10’s homepage.

This new technology was officially launched at the WWW 2003 conference in a technical paper titled: The Mechanics of a Deep Net Metasearch Engine.
