Wowd is a real-time search engine for discovering what’s popular on the web right now.
Wowd achieves both real-time results and comprehensive coverage. Like real-time search engines, Wowd delivers information seconds after it appears on the web. Unlike others, Wowd covers the entire web – any publically available page, from any web site, anywhere, can potentially be included in the Wowd index.
Wowd also delivers search results that real people find interesting. This is accomplished by taking into account pages preferred by people. Wowd doesn’t rely on web crawlers or conventional page ranking. Instead, Wowd uses a distributed cloud architecture. One way to think of this is -- Wowd is the Skype of real-time search.
In summary, Wowd is a great way to find out what real people are talking about, right now, on the web.«Less
