Announcing Lenzcape: creating your own set of specialized search engines is a breeze

After OnJobs, I have been busy with another site that is related to search engines: LenZcape. Although both sites are about specialized search engines, they are also quite different. OnJobs is a specialized search engine focused on a very specific area (job vacancies in the Netherlands). LenZcape on the other hand is much more powerful. It gives you the power to create what I made for OnJobs: specialized search engines (called lenzes on LenZcape). In fact, OnJobs is now running as a lenz on LenZcape.

Getting started is easy

And it’s easy enough to create your first specialized search engine. Just add a bookmark, say wikipedia, and you have created a lenz that can search the complete wikipedia site!

But that’s just the start. While you are adding and organizing your bookmarks, you are really starting to cultivate the LenZcape: lenzes will adapt themselves and refocus along with your bookmarks. So LenZcape gives you control over your bookmarks as well as your search engines, all in one place.

If you are interested, have a look and enjoy!
Your feedback - either via the contact page on LenZcape or by adding a comment here - is appreciated.
