An internet search engine that draws on human recommendations is due to make its first public appearance on Monday, although even its founder warns that it will take some time to tell if the experiment can yield useful results. Created by Jimmy Wales, the man behind online encyclopedia Wikipedia, the search service will let users rate the relevance of results on a five-star system, then apply that information to shape future search results shown to others.
It will also draw on ideas from online social networking to try to establish reputations for its users and decide whose ratings should carry the most weight.

Interesting stuff, i;ve always thought that some human interaction into web searching can result in better, more accurate and relative results
