Robin Good (picture above), an Italy-based Internet Blogger at Master New Media picked 10 new emerging web applications as "New Media Picks Of The Week: Sharewood Picnic 43".
Good commented on Master New Media, "Here is a new basket full of new media delicacies for your Sharewood Picnic.
Once again I have gotten a great bunch of interesting new media tools, resources and pointers I have run into during my daily research and explorations. All these new media gems can enable and fuel anyone's ability to inform oneself and to communicate more effectively with others in new and innovative ways."
Here is what he has to say about Lexxe:
"While Google and Yahoo refer you normally to endless list of links for any query you submit to them Lexxe has been exploring more intelligent ways to find information for users in a more meaningful way. The Lexxe search engine is built upon the foundation of advanced Natural Language Processing technology, which answers directly and simply to users’ queries. Like a human discussant, it analyses the question, tries to understand the intention of the user and provides a short answer in a few words. Lexxe knows how to answer questions such as “Where is Osama Bin Laden hiding?” (in Afghanistan), “How many amino acids are available?” (20), or “Who was the soloist of the Queen Group?” (Freddy Mercury). In addition to the answer, it presents the Internet pages that are directly connected to the question and suggestions for additional search terms that are more focused. "
