Recently, a search engine named Magi became popular. It can automatically aggregate related attributes according to the keywords you enter, and you can find the desired results almost at a glance without looking for information in links or waiting for the entry to be updated. Many people say that this is what the next generation of search engines should look like.
Several commonly used search engines, such as Google, Baidu, sogou and 360, are powerful, but they are far from easy to use. Most of the time, you need to turn over many pages to find the desired results. Not to mention some promotional links on the home page, it is misleading users.
In fact, besides Baidu, sogou and 360, we still have many useful search tools to choose from. This article will introduce you.
The first thing to introduce is, of course, Magi search. Its greatest feature is that it can extract the information that people want most and present it in a clear and orderly way. For example, when searching for digital products, attributes such as price, weight and special functions will be marked, and relevant labels will be given below.
Each color block represents an information point, corresponding to one or more information sources. When the pointer moves over, it will display a credible score, out of 100. This information is obtained by machine learning, and will be continuously learned and updated according to the increase of information sources. The pointer moves to the right link, which will correspond to the information points one by one. The design is beautiful.
Magi search solves the problem of information point aggregation. In the past, the information scattered in one link was automatically retrieved and displayed by the machine, and it continued to learn and improve.

Traditional search engines are a little bit more talked about, and there are advertisements. Baidu was criticized for some false promotion, and later they launched "simple search", which focused on pure search without advertising. Voice search and image recognition are added to the simple search, and the experience is further improved.

In addition to this comprehensive search engine, we sometimes meet some specific needs, such as searching documents and pictures, at this time some vertical search websites can come in handy. There are many such websites in the worm tribe, through which you can find what you want.

Of course, for users, it is still a little troublesome to search one by one in each website. For example, when I search AirPods, I want to see its product drawings, evaluation videos and sales information at the same time. At this time, I can use the tool Mr.Otter
Simply put, its function is to label different websites, then input keywords, and view different search results by switching labels. Mr.Otter can also quickly retrieve the pictures of the current webpage and download them in batches.
This team has also developed a file management tool, taglyst, whose core function is to find content through tags, which we have introduced in detail before.

Similar to Mr.Otter, the idea of Ai Search is to aggregate search results through tags. The software has provided many commonly used websites, such as shopping, videos, pictures, etc. You can also customize them and group them. When searching, just click on a website or a group of websites, and then enter keywords to search, and you can get the desired results.
It is more convenient to search for keywords. After setting keywords for a few websites, you can omit the step of selecting websites and search directly, for example, set "Look at XXX" to automatically search for movie titles in video websites.
The advantage of Ai Search is that it is specially optimized for the mobile phone, so that you can easily switch search results on the mobile side.

Whether the tools are good or not depends on whether they are suitable or not. In fact, several commonly used search engines, combined with advanced grammar, can also achieve the purpose of accurate search, but the threshold is too high for ordinary users, while tools such as Magi make search easier and ordinary users can quickly find the information they want.
Pay attention to WeChat official account, the geek’s choice, and reply "Search" in the background to get links to all tools.
