Krugle - Code Search Engine April 11, 2006
I had signed up for the Krugle service when I first heard about it from Ajaxian. It was promising to be a search engine to find source code - of everything (php, java, perl, c, you name it). Well they got an overwhelming response, and had to back off a bit till they had the resources to handle the demand.
I just got my account code the other day, and signed up for the Beta. It looks very promising. The interface is nice and fairly intuitive. Lots of use of Ajax here to make requests and manipulate the gui. If you click on a search result, it enableds a side pane that allows you to look at the code and the repository where it is located. All in one place. Pretty impressive. Very little lag time.
There needs to be some minor cleanup of the gui, but overall its a good project, and I can’t wait to to see the final version. If you haven’t signed up for a Krugle account, I reccomend heading over to their site and sign up for the Beta.
