FacteryLabs
For all people who prefer facts instead of long boring links there is now a site for that. Today company Factery Labs launched it’s fact search engine on facterylabs.com. So in this post I’ll try to review facterylabs in short lines…
When you first open the site you’ll see that it’s not really as minimalist and simple as today’s 2.0 websites. It’s not really nice looking but it will provide you all the information you want. There are about 9 widgets showing current hottest trends. They are based on Twitter‘s trending topics. At the top are 8 tabs showing you other topics you may be interested in. You can browse through Sports, World, Living, Tech and other. On the left is Search bar.
Since the site is pretty new, as expected it’s not giving you the facts right now. For example I first typed “Firefox 4.0″ and after few seconds it appeared that there are no facts about it. Second, i typed “Last.fm” and it had been passed like about 2 minutes and facterylabs are still getting facts? So, I decided to try something simple: typed “Avatar” and still facterylabs yet failed to get me some facts.
Even that facterylabs failed to share me some facts the idea of the site is pretty interesting and maybe will lead to something better in future such as GoogleFacts or something. I sure will give it a shot as soon as it become functionable again, and I suggest you to try it out too.
