   @thomas Sounds like a fair description. It's more or less what I thought.

   We might need to make a new one?

     @ekaitz_zarraga @thomas Before writing a new distributed search engine that doesn't work, I'd recommend addressing the question of where the ranking signal for results will come from.

     1. You can't do PageRank without crawling the entire web (or at least a significant portion of it)

     2. You need a lot of users to improve ranking based on previous clicks for the similar queries

     Without either 1 or 2, results won't be good enough for daily usage.
