Title: Bitcoin Search Engine - Thoughts?
Post by: bitcoinverse on June 17, 2014, 02:42:35 PM
I'm building a search tool specifically for bitcoin resources. Not a directory of top level sites, but a real Google-type engine.

What I've included to at this point:

-Products you can buy with bitcoin (e.g. google shopping)
-Services offered for bitcoin (e.g. web development, etc...)
-Ratings & reviews (aka, yelp)
-Development tools / github projects
-Investors & Funds targeting bitcoin
-Start ups
-Markets, exchanges, and payment processors

What else would make your life easier to find bitcoin resources/lists?

Any feedback (positive or negative) please? I'd thinking of some features like people search (by name, email or btc address).

Thank you!
