There's certainly room for another search engine. Have you ever tried shopping searches on Google? They're painful and I'm building something to fix that. Another horrible search experience is site-specific search. Try looking for some techcrunch articles about a topic or company. You'll get a ton of results, but filtering them is nearly impossible. I think there's great scope for innovation on the UI, as hipmunk has clearly shown. Touch-based interactions, instead of typing and clicking, are going to be important. Is there any specific vertical you're thinking of?
