FORGET GOOGLE! SPEZIFY IT!!

I don't know about you
but I could spend
a LONG time noodling
around on this site ~

Spezify.com







Do a Search on ANY WORD or TRENDING TOPIC
a Person's Name, or
Any Subject Matter
a Famous Person,
a Concept, Anything
Here's what I came up with when I
searched "Christmas Lights" on spezify.com

it pulled up
a veritable cornucopia
of VISUAL IMAGES
as well as





Blog Posts, Tweets, any Reference to it at all.
Then click an image, &
it will enlarge and
display info about it







Then click the button in the bottom right

of the image
to get the source,
along with a link
to the original





SPEZIFY is based on a similar concept to TWITCAPS (pic below)
but Spezify draws from
the entire web while
TwitCaps only displays
uploaded Twitter
images, 24 at a time








Above, I searched the term "Christmas Lights" on TwitCaps
(The
TwitCaps Search Bar is on the top right) while...
My Spezify "Christmas Lights" search (above)
brought up images, blog posts & articles, too.

You can search a celebrity - like, say, Ashton Kutcher

& find images,
articles, and
blog posts.










or do a Search on a
concept, like "Peace"
(is that a COOL
image or what?)






...or Search
Nutcrackers









or Search Puppies
(so cute!)









...or Search
Kittens (aw!)








You get the idea! Okay, maybe
Spezify won't actually
replace Google or Bing any time soon, but I can still see
see the value of it for research, or just for fun.
What will you search? Tell me in the comments!
Hope you enjoyed this post, and
HAPPY SPEZIFYING, PEOPLE!
