Seeks is a free and open P2P design and application for enabling social websearch. Its specific purpose is to regroup users whose queries are similar so they can share both the query results and their experience on these results. On this basis, Seeks allows for true real-time, decentralized, websearch to emerge.

In the long term, there is no need for web crawlers and third-party web indexes as users can push content directly to search groups. By hashing queries, Seeks offers a unique solution that allows to issue queries and get answers while not revealing the true query itself. More Info »

Seeks is currently under development. Code is available from our git repository. Help on any of the social, technical and software matters is greatly encouraged and appreciated.
