10 萬美金的搜尋引擎
新加坡的 Agency for Science, Technology and Research (科學技術研究局)日前公佈將提供十萬美金舉辦一個搜尋引擎競賽,依照新聞稿的說法,參賽的搜尋引擎,不僅要能作一般的文字搜尋,還要能在多媒體檔案中找出關鍵字,PHYSORG.COM 公佈的原文如下:
Contestants are required to create a search engine that can identify search terms found not only in text within websites, but in music and video files as well.比起 Netflix 的大手筆(一百萬美金耶),十萬元實在是太少了...
The competition is aimed at creating a search engine that works across all multi-media platforms, especially Web 2.0 and user-generated content websites such as Facebook and YouTube, the agency said.
