I don't know much about Gigablast, but this sounds pretty cool. If nothing else, it's another alternative to Lucene/Solr or Nutch for people working on search applications.


This isn't an alternative to general purpose text search engines: it is specialized for searching the internet.


Right, so it's alternative in the cases where someone might use Lucene/Solr for indexing and searching general Internet content. That's all I meant, is that it's an alternative in certain very specific cases.


Still an alternative to nutch and friends
