Re:Ask HN: What sites, e.g. experts-exchange.com, would you ... by prakash on Monday July 13, 2009 @01:27PM (#702099)
1. Sites which are useless for everyone e.g.: splogs, etc.

2. Some sites could be useful for a few, while being completely useless for the rest i.e. letting users remove certain sites from their results only

3. Like the ad-block software, people could subscribe to well-defined popular lists to get started.

4. I would also segment by verticals. E.g.:when you do a people search, you could bucket results into:

a.) sites where the user, him/her self has entered the info - linkedin, facebook type websites

b.) sites where a community has created a profile - wikipedia

c.) sites that inteliigently crawl other sites and present the info -- lead411 , pipl, zoominfo, spoke, etc are useless to me
