Snippets:
External transformation included teaming with the ExactSeek (http://www.exactseek.com) Search Engine and directory. Gimpsy users now have the option to search this directory from any search page. Similarly, users of those directories have access to the Gimpsy search facilities.
Users that like to use Natural Language queries will be glad to find that Gimpsy is fully tolerant to the use of plural and singular forms of nouns.
For users that prefer keyword based searching, Gimpsy is now able to scan all the descriptions, titles and URLs in its database and bring up the matching results. After the appropriate category is found, search results can be further filtered by using keywords, location and other (category specific) criteria.
Site owners will now find suggesting their site to the appropriate category to be a much easier task. Clicking on a small ‘closed book’ symbol, located next to a category name, opens a small help file. This file reveals the internal criteria used by the Gimpsy Editorial Team to assess the suitability of a site to that category.
...there is now yet another way for the users to communicate with the Gimpsy Team: a small speech bubble at the bottom of every page on site. Click on it – and you can chat live, in real time and in private, with one of the Gimpsy Team members.
