Search the “Tagosphere” with Wink

Wink is a brand new search engine that opened to the public today. It lets you search across link sharing sites like del.icio.us, Digg, Slashdot and others. Wink splits results into two halves. The top set of results come from these communities, while the bottom is straight out of Google. You can bookmark results and sync them with del.icio.us.

So far, I like what I see, although I am not sure how Wink is ranking the results from the tag sites. I also wish I could search just one or two of these sites through some advanced search interface. Still, we need a site like Wink and I look forward to seeing where they take it. Michael Arrington has more.
