Slimming for the Beach

In a clever hat-tip to the Dewey Dec­i­mal Clas­si­fi­ca­tion Sys­tem used in Libraries, Ms Dewey is search as you’ve never seen it. It takes quite a while to load, so if you’ve a slow con­nec­tion for­get it. But no doubt its use of an avatar like Ms Dewey will be suf­fi­ciently amus­ing to per­sist, at least first time around.

Harm­less fun, and while it’s slow, it’s not bad as a search engine, and makes the best job I’ve seen of dis­tin­guish­ing itself from Google. No doubt that was the objec­tive and no doubt it can only improve.
