Clustered Search Free to .edu Sites

Viv’simo has created "Clusty's Site Search Service," a free service for education institutions and nonprofits that want to offer a dynamic clustering search box on their own Web sites. Users enter their search in the “Clusty” search box and the query is automatically directed to a search tab at Clusty.com that carries the institution’s name. This is where the actual search process takes place. Results are then grouped on-the-fly into topical folders for easier navigation. Institutions can select from various local and/or Web search options.
