“Warning: This isn’t your Dad’s search engine”
says Wink.
Which gets me thinking about what my Dad’s search engine is like. I really ought to go and find out sometime, last time I was there it was google on Internet Explorer, or maybe MSN search. So should I pass Wink on to my sons and then not use it myself or am I just overreacting to the implied slur on Dads
When I tried the “synchronise with del.icio.us” option it crashed the database, by the way.

My dads search engine was Altavista. About the scripting error…they seem to have some kind of error in their code that they must be having a hard time finding. Every now and then they have warnings in their results. As founder of Seekum.com a search engine that allows users to vote results up or down, I can understand some of the stress in laying the code. Search code is pretty grueling.
