To be competitive in search today you have to be on par with Google in the core functionality and provide something else.
For my search interests MSE360 is at least on par with Google. On top of that there's a very nice presentation combining standard, media (video, images), social media (twitter, blogs), and wikipedia search results.
Each standard search entry has two little right-justified icons that currently lead me to the same "Site Details" page that provides basic site info, search engine index data comparative chart, social exposure meter, and other information.
Here comes my wishlist:
- Hopefully one day there will be a service a la Google Alerts that would allow me to get notifications about new search results
- I wish I could stop the auto-refresh of the Twitter "portlet"
- A more visually inspiring color scheme of the search results page would be great
