    I took a quick look - you do have some interesting ideas in there.

    I was wondering though, how would you go about implementing this:

    ====================

    Webapp: Search engine for search engines

    You enter your search and it directs it through the most relevant search engine.

    chinese restaurant -> Yelp

    ruby tutorials -> delicious

    ===========================

    What I mean is, with so many possible keywords/phrases, how would you go about determining a relevant destination corresponding to each different query?

    We've been working on something pretty close to this for quite some time; have had some breakthroughs; but it's been an uphill battle, to say the least. :-)
