Very initial impression: * I like the zero-click info. * Is disambiguation redundant? Can't you just infer from history and location? Or is this against you

The single most frustrating thing I find about search engines is iterating a non-trivial search. It doesn't seem like DDG has an edge against Google here. I long to see a search engine that makes it easy to send a question off to Quora, Vark etc.
- epi0Bauqu 16y agoHow would that work exactly in your mind? We already have a feature to send your search to hundreds of other sites, http://duckduckgo.com/bang.html http://duckduckgo.com/bang.html Is it as simple as redirecting you to those sites, or do you mean manage the workflow, email you the results, etc.?
- resdirector 16y ago(I like the bang feature: many of my searches are of the form "wiki william henry harrison". By the way, I think the search results for http://duckduckgo.com/?q=william+henry+harrison http://duckduckgo.com/?q=william+henry+harrison are out of order) My ideal search-engine would be a cross between a traditional search-engine (machine) and a Q&A site (humans). If you were taking a lot of iterations to find your answer, you could simply expand the text-area to allow you to write out a human question. So, short of DDG becoming also a Q&A site....yeah, dunno :P.
