Thanks for the submission. There are few thoughts from me: - I wonder what does it mean by "customizable", i.e. how is this different from DuckDuckGo with its duck.co? - I think that the UI can be much better, a good UI does not necessarily to have shiny elements (shadows, gradients, etc). Good UI shall be consistent (in layout, colors, look-and-feel) and intuitive (assume you are a new user, by only looking, one should know what to do next). Maybe read some tips from http://goodui.org/ - Why I should register for an account? Reasons are not that clear. - When I see the signup page, I was amazed that you implemented such many external account linkage. Maybe you can you consistent image sizes or even just text without image. - When I navigate to the home page, it's not pretty clear what I should do: login? signup? "learn more"? or navigate via the navbar? In summary, I had mostly UI issues, I was once like this, did not care anything about UI, but later I realized that UI, even with a super powerful back-end, is still a very important part of web development since it is what faces the user, and it is what made the user feel. Good luck and have fun :)

Thanks for the feedback and the link! To answer your questions: 1) "I wonder what does it mean by "customizable"" You can add different plugins (that produce answers) and control when to activate them. You can also create mini-search engines that search specific domains. There are also a few settings about security that you can tweak. 2) "how is this different from DuckDuckGo with its duck.co" This search engine also includes a feed reader and get results from your feeds when you search. Also, the plugin system allows you to add data and plugins (written in 100% Javascript) instantly without anyone's approval. 3) "Why I should register for an account?" Since this includes a feed reader, you need to create an account to save your chosen feeds. Also by creating an account you can create your own mini-search engines and add plugins other than the default.

Since you've asked these questions, it's clear to me that I haven't done a good job explaining these things on my site. I'll be working on improving this. Thanks a lot for the feedback!
