Singapore search portal to be launched

Singapore - A Singaporean search portal will be launched next year to provide answers and information about the city-state to anyone in the world, developers said Tuesday.

SPH Search, the first locally focused search engine set up in Asia, will use content from a variety of different sources and filter out useless information.

"There`s an evolution of search from being just pure web search to search within destination sites," The Straits Times quoted Zia Zaman, executive vice-president of Fast Search & Transfer (Fast), as saying.

Norway-based Fast is developing the technology.

The search portal will be capable of taking note of a customer`s details, such as profile, locale, language and search histories. Such details will then be used to tailor the search results.
