Project description
It is a project that's still under development.
It is an online tool that will allow users to save and tag url's. The principles for this kind of application are not new (see Del.icio.us), but there will be some additional features in the search area and users group management.
We want to give users the opportunity to build a custom search engine with the hability to search within a bulk of website or url's. The criteria for building these bulks would range from :
- user's private url's
- related url's
- related url's saved by the user's identified friends
- …
Group search will be usefull in a company where specialists can gather informations and share among the users in their company or department. The project is to host an online version of the product and also give companies the opportunity to host their own system.
Current status
Current status is : Private Alpha
The challenging part of the project is to define THE architecture that will be scalable and reliable. This is the kind of job that is currently performed.
Current running architecture does not scale well enough to fulfill our goals. A new one is under test.
Current data set contains :

- > 4 000 000 url's
It is a view of the Dmoz directory for which each tag maps a categories.
