Better Search: Blekko.com

Blekko.com, this week's Website We Just Can't Get Enough Of, is a different kind of search engine, one that aims to better contextualize your search results. They try to do this by using "Êslashtags," which tell the engine what kind of information and from what kind of websites you're seeking it out on. If you want information on politics, for example, you can use the /liberal or /conservative tags to only see blogs on one side of the coin, or look for funny commentary using the /humor tag. Check it out today at Blekko.com!

Print from iPad Without an iOS Update!

Aaron says, "On the latest Tekzilla, Veronica talked about waiting for iOS 4.2 to come out so she could print from her iPad.
