TWERQ is a new platform that boasts being the first tabbed search engine browser. This is similar to tabbed browsing that is available with browsers such as Internet Explorer 7 and Mozilla Firefox. TWERQ provides more portability than most other search engines and accommodates those who do not have tabbed browsers, thus enhancing productivity. TWERQ’s search results are powered by Google.
Above is a sample of the Twerq search engine interface. Notice the ++, //, , .., .)), and )). This filters searches based on RSS feeds, allows bulk search, and allows a repeating of the first and last term. The example I found on Ionut Alex’s Google Operating System blog explains it better (Google Operating System blog is not affiliated with Google Inc.):
“You can also add an initial part that repeats for each search, like rent// bmw ++ citroen ++ chevrolet. This will open three tabs that search for: rent bmw, rent citroen, rent chevrolet.”
The fact that there is tabbed searching is definetely TWERQ’s highlighted feature, but I did notice a problem with the search. After you enter for keywords on other search engines such as pulse2 and you click on the Pulse2.com link, it should not have you open a new window to see the website whereas the TWERQ search engine does. This is a bit more detractive for a search engine since I want to have a minimum amount of windows open at any given time.
However, the Canadian Fort Kent, Alberta based company has definetely entered the market with a plan to monetize from their services which is always a good thing. TWERQ has a growing number of sponsors. Wesley Long is the founder of TWERQ Technology and Jeff M. Kurr is the TWERQ Technology Legal Council for a patent that TWERQ had applied for.
There are a number of TWERQ2Go features in which you can create an account and save the searches, bookmarks, and RSS feeds from any location. Registration is required.
