New Zealanders are into search engine business. The Searchii.co.nz is the new search engine created for them. The search engine is supposed to be a wrapper of Google. But it offers deeper search for websites that are from New Zealand only.
The sorting of content also depends on the local relevancy. It offers advanced search and setting of your own preference such as how many search result to return in a page, enable safe search, language selection and open search result in a new browser window. These are some of the common preferences that have been offered by the big search engines such as Google.
Each search result gives a preview option, when clicked, it’ll load the page in a small iframe. Somehow, I find this unnecessary.
Talking about the option that allows user to open a new browser window when the search result is clicked, AskAlexia.com seems to have no option for this. They do it differently, which each search result will open to a new browser window by default. But almost all other search engines will open on the same windows, unless you’ve chosen to open in a new browser window. But AskAlexia ajax search does it by default opening search result in a new browser window and gives no option for that. I think they shall make some improvements for this. But they’re forgiven since they’re still in the BETA version.
