HowDoYa adds relevancy to search

HowDoYa. is a search engine that I've mentioned before - it finds sites or pages that show you how to do things - plan a wedding, clean a car and so on. When you've done a search you get to see some keywords that match up with What, Who, Why and Where. Now they've added in a spectacles option, or X-Ray vision as they term it, which allows you to click on the  glasses and see which keywords are included in the specific site you're looking at. This allows users to quickly see if the result is really what they're after.

It's a very clever and interesting twist - to be honest, it's much easier if you try it, so toddle off and take a peek.
