Quntura for Kids


Wow! Check out this new search engine for kids at: http://kids.quintura.com

Here's a short description from the website:
Designed specifically for kids, this new experience demonstrates Quintura’s continued commitment to change the way people search and find information on the Web. Based on the same cutting edge Neural Network technology used on Quintura.com, Quintura for Kids utilizes the Quintura cloud, which allows kids to find what they are looking for faster and easier than ever before

For instance, if I click on the word "animal" the Quintura cloud changes to include descriptors such as species, territory, habitat... and my search results change as I continue to click on the ever-changing cloud.

It's powered by Yahoo! Kids. Very cool. So helpful for kids who may not be able to spell "big" words.

Thanks to the SVSD Classroom Technology blog for the tip.
